Back with another post as part of Theme based food bloogers group. This time the theme was to explore something which you have never tried. The theme was exciting because I have a list of things that I wanted to try. But it was all dependent on what is available in this season. Luckily I spotted some fresh,plump Portobello Mushrooms

Portobello mushrooms are quite bigger in size than the regular mushrooms,has meaty texture. These are firm and holds shape even after cooking.So these are ideal for stuffing

I went with a simple and healthy stuffing of spinach and corn. You can go creative with the stuffing like simple cheese and onion,meat,sausages, rice
