Stuffed Mushroom Casserole

We love stuffed mushrooms, so this casserole is a perfect
 side dish for us.  It is a great
side dish for an Italian meal or with anything you want.  Super easy and delicious. (from Dinner, dishes, and desserts.com)


1 pound loose Italian sausage (you can substitute ground pork or breakfast sausage.  If you substitute sausage, add 2 Tablespoon Italian seasoning when you add salt and pepper)
16 ounces of cleaned mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 cloves of minced garlic
1 cup onion, diced
1/3 cup bell pepper, diced
3/4 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
4 Tablespoons olive oil, divided into 3 and 1
1 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese, divided


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large skillet heat 1 Tbls olive oil over medium high heat.  Add mushrooms, and onions , and cook for 5-6 minutes until lightly browned. Mix in garlic,and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.   Remove from pan.

Return the skillet to heat and brown sausage until fully cooked. Drain and mix with mushroom mixture.  Season with salt and pepper  (and Italian seasoning if necessary)

Mix in 1 cup of Mozzarella cheese, and pour into a casserole dish.  Sprinkle remaining cheese over the top.

In a bowl mix together breadcrumbs and remaining 3 Tbls olive oil.  Spread evenly over the top of the casserole.

Bake for 15 minutes 

Note:  You can substitute Italian blend shredded cheese or mix it with the Mozzarella.
