This is an easy and delicious recipe. The Pecorino Romano is the perfect cheese to use, as it pairs really well with the bread crumbs. You need not worry about bland stuffed mushrooms anymore, as these are very flavorful! If you live in a dry area you might want to add a little more olive oil or chop the mushroom stems and put them in the bread crumb mixture (this will add moisture).
