Ingredients
- 4 tsp. / 30 g goat cheese, soft
- 2 tsp. / 3 g fresh chives, chopped
- 4 tsp. / 20 ml olive oil
- 4 baby Portobello mushrooms (1½-2 inches / 3½-5 cm across), cleaned and towel-dried, stems removed and finely chopped
- ¼ tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 fresh clove or ½ tsp. granulated garlic
- ⅛ tsp. ground black pepper
- ¼ tsp. grated lime zest
- Salt to taste
- 2 tsp. Parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 °C/400 °F. Place silicon-baking parchment on a baking tray.
- Combine goat cheese with chives, and set aside.
- Heat oil over medium, and add mushrooms and chopped stalks. Cook the mushroom caps until just tender, flipping them to ensure even browning. Remove caps to the parchment, placing them open side up.
- Add the paprika, garlic, pepper, zest, and salt to the mushroom stems in the pan; stir and sauté until fragrant.
- Add the hot seasoned stems to the cheese-chive combination, and blend well in a food processor or food chopper with an ‘S’ blade.
- Fill each mushroom cap with 1 tablespoon of the soft cheese mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Place the tray in the oven on a middle rack, and bake for approximately 15 minutes, until the mushrooms are lightly browned.

I was wondering since i don’t like mushrooms can i make stuffed fresh jalapenos instead with cream cheese &cheddar? Just without the bacon generally used in poppers?
Hi, ladybug. That’s a great idea!
If I use baby eggplant will the carb amount intake be the same as the mushroom?
Hi, Mjmack. Yes – baby eggplant is a great substitute for mushrooms here.
I accidentally bought regular mushrooms, I went off the grocery list, which did not specify. Any suggestions?
Hi, Ppaula. Regular mushrooms are fine.
I’m not a fan of mushrooms, is there any other substitution I can use instead
Hi, vonsoto. You can use thick zucchini/courgette slices instead, or even baby eggplants.
What other type of cheese would you reccomend as a substitute?
Any full-fat cheese will do, as would finely ground nuts. You can even just increase the amount of Parmesan.
Can you add a salad to this meal?
Hi, LMoore. Yes, but be sure to use “free” vegetables, such as salad greens, cucumbers, scallions (green onion), zucchini (courgettes), and lemon or lime juice.
Can you and onions and bell peppers
Hi, Sparkle30. In small amounts here, yes.
Is there a substitute for goat cheese
Hi, Justmari69. Any cheese will do, as would finely ground nuts.
Thank you
Can you make the caps up till the baking portion and refrigerate them for a day or 2?
Hi, Cmwilkerson. Yes – that would be fine.
Do I have to use goat cheese can I use low-fat cheese because goat cheese because it makes my stomach curdle
Hi, Tyleeiabb. We recommend full-fat cheese – of any type – since this is keto and needs to be high in fat.
When it says crab what does the 1/4 mean is it cup ?
And what does the crab substitute?
Hi, Wavylyz. There is no crab in or recommended for this recipe. Were you perhaps referring to a different recipe? Or are you asking about crab in general?
At the bottom of the recipe it says exchanges per serving 1/4 crab 1 protein and 4 fat
Hi, Wavylyz. That is “carb,” an abbreviation for “carbohydrate.” That refers to a nutrient exchange system used by diabetics (1 carb exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrate, so 1/4 exchange is approximately equal to 4 grams, which is what this recipe yields per serving, as indicated at the top).
Can I substitute goat cheese with a different cheese?
Hi, SheaHill. Absolutely! Just make sure it’s not a “light” or “lite” cheese, of course.
Thanks for your swift reply. Instead of goat cheese I used cream cheese. I hope that was ok?..They turned out DELICIOUS!
Hi, SheaHill. That’s excellent!
Where can I goat cheese at?
Hi, Newandy. Goat cheese is generally available in the dairy case of supermarkets. If you can’t find it there, please post your city/state and/or zip code, and I will find a location for you.
I found some at meijer thanks
Can someone please provide the macro or similar values for this meal? Thank you.
Hi, smnnkd. That information has been added. 🙂
