I hate to be juvenile but......OMG!!!! are these good!! I didn't have any portobello mushrooms just used the regular white ones and honestly I just used store bought hummus plus the peppers and now I'm not sure I can have all these items separately without yearning for them all together in this recipe!!! HIGHLY recommend this recipe!!

I bought red pepper hummus for this recipe and overall, it was good but I think regular hummus would provide the same result. The recipe is a great idea but you need to personalize the ingredients.

These were great! I just made them for our early Christmas get together and everyone wanted the recipe. I did not have portobello mushrooms so I used "regular". Will definitely make again. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

I HIGHLY recommend this recipe! I had homemade hummus to use up (Hummus III from the website is awesome!) I didn't have red pepper hummus so I just added a chopped up roasted red pepper to the mixture instead of green pepper. I also had some leftover caramelized onions to use up, which worked great. I'm going to make this one over and over, so thanks for the recipe.

These mushrooms are a great appetizer that can be assembled ahead of time. I followed recipe minus the lemon pepper. I swapped out green peppers for colored ones I had on hand and also added about 2 Tablespoons of green onions. That I would do again. I took them to a party. Several hours before I had to leave I completed the recipe except for baking and put them in the refrigerator. I baked the mushrooms at the party. They were a hit!

Great recipe, easy to make, healthy and so flavorful. Cooked for friends who are on a low-fat, low-salt diet, and it's now a regular on our menu at home. Great to make on the run when you don't have much time or energy to cook. I serve it with a side of couscous or crusty bread.

This was good, and very popular at the BBQ I brought them to, even though I had some picky eaters present. Interesting flavor... although I have other stuffed mushroom recipes that I like a little better, this one is still a keeper since it's healthier than those others I have.
