  4. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, except for the reserved mushrooms caps. Give everything a good mix. If the mixture seems dry, you may add a little bit of water.(3 minutes)
  5. Fill the mushrooms caps with the mixture and place them on the baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes.(20 minutes)
  6. Serve warm. Enjoy!
