Today a really delicious recipe that I recommend you make as an appetizer for special occasions, Baked Breaded Champignon Mushrooms. Nothing simpler and tastier. The mushroom stays tender inside this super crispy breadcrumb coating, due to the double dip in egg and breadcrumbs. An autumnal side dish that is also very cheap and within everyone’s reach. You can also slice them and dip them in flour, egg, and breadcrumbs, but I assure you that whole they are very, very tasty. This can also be considered a light recipe if instead of white breadcrumbs you use whole grain and maybe skip the second dip in egg and breadcrumbs. In the end, just season the food less, and everything turns out much lighter. I will prepare these mushroom cutlets as an appetizer for the Christmas lunch, which I must say is around the corner. If you then accompany and enjoy these cutlets with a sauce of your choice, which can be mayonnaise or something else, they are no longer light, but I assure you the taste will be greatly enhanced. After all, for the holiday season, some exceptions can be made. If you like mushrooms, you’ll find a delicious collection of mushroom recipes here
