Step-by-Step Instructions for Stuffed Mushroom Eyeballs
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Rinse or gently brush off the cremini mushroom caps and remove the stems. Place them open-side up on a baking sheet.
  2. In a food processor, blend the drained extra-firm tofu, garlic, lemon juice, salt, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth and creamy. Use a piping bag for easy filling.
  3. Drizzle balsamic vinegar into the center of each mushroom cap, ensuring a rich flavor.
  4. Pipe the prepared tofu ricotta into each mushroom cap, creating a mound shape without overflowing.
  5. Chiffonade the sun-dried tomatoes and place them on top of the stuffed mushrooms. Add a slice of black olive on each for decoration.
  6. Bake the stuffed mushrooms for 10 to 15 minutes until the caps are slightly wrinkled and fragrant.
  7. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm or at room temperature, paired with your favorite dipping sauce.
