Mushroom Bites

I made these last night for dinner. I love this combo of mushrooms, thyme and gruyere. If you can't find gruyere you can substitute swiss cheese. These were so good but seriously you can toss pretty much anything into these bites. I haven't had a failure yet.

They are one of my favorite post weight loss surgery meals with a scoop of my Italian Bean Salad. If you aren't into "fungus" check out my other bites below.


Shelly's Mushroom Bites

5 Green Onions, diced
8 Mushrooms, diced (I used a combo of Crimini and White)
1 teaspoon Butter
1/2 teaspoon dried Thyme
1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
a few twists of Black Pepper
1/3 cup Tomato, diced (I used S&W canned, drained)
5 Eggs, beaten
1/2 cup Gruyere, shredded (If you can't find Gruyere substitute Swiss)
1/2 cup Parmesan, grated

Preheat oven to 350 F. Saute onions and mushrooms in butter till golden. Set aside to cool.

Mix all ingredients together. Be sure veggie mixture has cooled slightly before adding to egg mixture. Spoon (I use a small ice cream scoop) into a lightly greased mini muffin tin. Bake for 30 minutes or until centers are firm. Makes 24.


Serve as a weight loss surgery friendly appetizer, light meal with a salad, or breakfast. These particular bites are great if you have vegetarian friends coming over.
