Did you put the mushroom stems back into the stuffing mix, Judy?

I'm going to give this a go tonight and will incorporate them with the carrot / zucchini mix.  Although they are not included in the original recipe, either, but I'll see what happens.  I have another stuffed mushroom recipe that puts the stalks in with the stuffing mix so I should imagine all will be well.

This was very nice - I liked the peanut butter in it.  So long as you don't go over the quantities of PB and cheese, this can easily fall into the 5:2 diet - I estimated c. 100 calories per mushroom. 

The stalks didn't appear to make any difference at all - my only problem seemed to be that they were glued in with superglue, I had a bit of a job getting them out ... but I persevered and won!  Definitely onto my 5:2 list.  Thanks for converting the recipe, Judy (because I was doing this "by hand" I had to grate the carrots and zucchini, but I remembered how to use a grater so that worked out fine).

 :D :D  Hand grating is a skill we don't forget easily Marina.  Glad you enjoyed them like I did.  I also found the stem difficult to remove - I sort of sawed into it with a sharp, pointy knife, turning the mushroom as I did so.

I actually cooked mine in the microwave.  Perhaps not the best alternative, but it was all I had to hand.  Slower cooking in the oven / air fryer would probably be nicer.
