I'm allergic to nuts so I used sunflower seeds in the stuffing instead of pine nuts. They were still delicious.

I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the stuffing and it gave them a nice tangy flavor. I would definitely recommend trying this variation.

I used cremini mushrooms instead of baby portobello and they worked just as well. This recipe is very versatile.

These mushrooms were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more butter or olive oil next time.
