stuffed portabellaNot sure why I am calling these monsters, cuz they are not scary, they are YUMMY. They are loaded with protein and low in carbs.

I used leftover turkey from Thanksgiving as a stuffer and wanted to bring in some spice so cut up some spicy salami to add too. Even if you don’t use meat as a stuffing like I did, a portabella is 20% protein (in relation to it’s dried weight), so your mushroom is bringing in some protein for you right there.

Portabella mushrooms are extraordinary in my book! They are low in calories (if you count those things) and they are big and filling in size (oh yeah!). They are full of minerals and B vitamins too. Oh, and their fiber content is pretty rocking as well.

The day after Thanksgiving I threw these stuffed together and WILL be doing it again. Keep reading to get my easy recipe:
