Cheesy Stuffed Mushrooms

Ingredients

• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 green pepper, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup light sour cream
• 4 ounces Neufchatel cheese, softened
• 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons parsley
• Salt and pepper
• 1/2 cup sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
• 16 white mushrooms, stems removed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400° F. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and green pepper and cook until vegetables are tender (about 5-10 minutes). Remove vegetables from heat and cool slightly.

In a bowl, combine cooked vegetables, sour cream, Neufchatel cheese, garlic, parsley, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup of the sharp Cheddar cheese. Stuff each mushroom with cheese filling and sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup of sharp Cheddar cheese over top of each mushroom. Cook for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted.
