Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 2 cups baby bella mushrooms (8 oz), sliced
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh thyme (or 1/4 tsp dried thyme)
- 1/2 tsp salt
Creamy Elements
- 1 cup cream cheese (8 oz), softened
- 1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese, divided
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Leave the cream cheese out on the counter to soften. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove the mushroom stems and slice the mushrooms. Mince the garlic cloves.
- Sauté Garlic and Thyme: Heat the avocado oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the minced garlic and thyme, cooking until they are soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- Cook Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Toss frequently as they cook until slightly soft, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and remove the skillet from heat.
- Mix Creamy Base: While the mushrooms cool slightly, combine the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and half of the shredded parmesan (1/2 cup) in a bowl, mixing until smooth.
- Combine and Top: Add the cream cheese mixture back into the skillet with the cooked mushrooms. Mix thoroughly to combine. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded parmesan over the top.
- Bake: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- Broil: Increase the oven temperature to broil and cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the parmesan cheese on top is browned and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve hot with toasted baguette slices, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
Notes
- Be sure to soften the cream cheese in advance for easy mixing.
- Use a cast iron skillet or any oven-safe skillet to go directly from stovetop to oven.
- Broiling at the end adds a delicious golden crust—watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Serve immediately for the best creamy, melty texture.
- For a lighter option, substitute low-fat Greek yogurt and reduced-fat cream cheese.
