Juicy bellas topped with herbs and crisp shredded cheesy potato. Add as little or as much olive oil and load as much or as little potato on the mushrooms, with your preferred herbs and you got your weekend brunch!
Before I could say summer, Fall is already here! Labor day, short days. pfft. Its already getting dark at 7:30.
These are quick to put together, with a few ingredients. Marinate the mushrooms, top with grated russet, herbs, salt and evoo and bake! done. Serve as is or with a side of potato chips or hashbrowns, mashed potatoes and/or your favorite gravy.
Steps:
Marinate the shrooms. Brush with oil, prick the up side with fork and top with salt, spice and herbs. I added some more parsley than are visible. There are a few strategically placed for the picture 😉
You can remove the gills of the mushrooms if you like, hubbs likes them. Oh yes, and we love our chili powder:). Feel free to add spice to taste.
Grate a russet on a paper towel. Add salt, pepper, nutritional yeast and mix. Let sit for 2 minutes, so some of the excess moisture will get absorbed in the towel, then top the bellas. Sprinkle more salt, peppa, nutritonal yeast.
Bake for 30 minutes. Check the center of the mushroom for softness by pricking with a toothpick.
Serve hot as is, or with a side of extra hash browns, potato chips, mashed potatoes n gravy or salad.

Stove top potato chips:
Slice a Russet potato on a paper napkin.
Brush the slices lightly with extra virgin olive oil on one side. I used very little oil this way.
Place the oiled slice on a heated large pan on medium heat. Cook until browned and crisp. Flip to crisp up the other side for a few minutes.
Toss with salt, pepper, spices of choice. Serve.
