Ingredients:  
6 medium portobello caps
2 slices fresh bread, made into fresh bread crumbs
1 green onion
3 T butter, divided
1/2 red bell pepper
1 T fresh basil
1 T fresh oregano
4 T parmesan cheese, divided
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Directions:
1. Heat over to 350º
2. Twist mushroom stems to remove from mushroom caps. Finely chop enough stems to measure 1/4 cup.
3. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chopped mushroom stems, onion and bell pepper in butter about 3 minutes, stirring frequently until onions are softened. Remove from heat. Stir in bread crumbs, 2 T cheese, basil, oregano, salt and pepper. Fill caps with bread crumb mixture.
4. Melt 1 T butter in pan large enough to hold the mushroom caps. Place mushrooms, filled sides up, in pan. Sprinkle caps with 2 T cheese. Bake uncovered 15 minutes.
5. If you want a crunchier top, broil mushrooms with tops 3 to 4 inches from heat the last 2 minutes or until the tops are light brown. Serve hot.

These also work very well on the grill. Use a foil pan with raised sides. Place 1 T butter or olive oil in bottom of the pan. Place caps in prepared pan. Cover tightly with foil and grill 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Leave foil off for the last couple of minutes for a firmer filling.
