FunGuy’s Baked Feta and Roasted Herb Mushrooms

The sun is shining and the birds are singing making it the perfect day to dine al fresco, but what to serve?

We suggest our new recipe for warm baked feta and roasted garlicky herb mushrooms! Make sure to add some crusty baguette bread, a few pepperoncini peppers, and good marinated olives to serve with it.

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Brush off any debris from the FunGuy mushrooms with a damp cloth, trim the ends, and transfer to a mixing bowl. Peel the garlic and slice half of it to add to the mushrooms. Mince the other half of the garlic and set aside. Remove the stems from the peppers, dice one and set aside with the sliced garlic, and slice the rest. Chop the basil and remove the stems from the oregano and mince before adding both to the mushrooms. 
3. Add half of the olive oil to the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and toss well to coat them. Transfer the mushrooms to the baking sheet in a single layer on one side. 
4. Put the feta cheese into an oven safe dish and top with the diced garlic, pepper, and dried oregano. Pour the remaining oil over the feta and transfer the dish to the baking sheet. 
5. Bake the mushrooms and feta for 10-15 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the feta has melted. 
6. While the mushrooms and feta cook prepare the baguette by cutting it into ¼ inch slices on a cutting board and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Toast the baguette for the last 3-5 minutes it takes to cook the mushrooms. 
7. Remove the mushrooms, feta, and baguette from the oven and allow the cheese to cool about 5 minutes. Serve warm together with marinated olives and more pepperoncini peppers!

Have a Fun meal!
