- Use a spoon to fill each mushroom cap, rounding off the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is golden brown.

Notes
- The stems and cores can be chopped into small pieces and added to the filling. They may also be discarded.
- Lightly spray tops of stuffed mushrooms with cooking spray or olive oil to assist with browning.
- Any leftover filling can be used to make stuffed flounder, cod, or salmon.
- I use plain breadcrumbs. You can use Italian or panko breadcrumbs for a different flavor and texture.
- Old Bay Seasoning is salty. If you are sensitive to sodium, consider omitting the additional 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
