I made vegetarian mushroom souffle last week

My friend described it as being like mushroom stuffing, but different. I found several recipes online for mushroom souffle and winged it. I had stale bread, mushrooms, onions, garlic, egg, and seasonings. I didn't have chevre` cheese, so I used some Mozarella cheese. It turned out really good. I am so surprised at the way the cheese changed the texture of the dish. I filled a small pie plate and baked it at 325 for 35 minutes. I only used one egg, so it probably wasn't as fluffy as it could be. I will do it again.

It sounds good. I made a mushroom risotto. It was good, but a bit bland. I think I needed more "punchy" cheese.

I'll add just a little to cream soup, eggplant parmesan, even mac and cheese, when I made it. It adds such richness to the flavor. I've never made risotto.

I’ve been wanting to try a spinach soufflé but don’t have the proper baking dish.

I mainly cook for myself, so I use whatever I have handy. If the pan spreads the recipe out, I watch the bake time, so I don't burn it up. lol

If you have any ovenproof glass bowls with straight sides, they would probably work for a souffle.
Hope you get to make your souffle. That sounds really good!

Like, half of a sphere.

My dog’s food dish is actually a regular white ceramic soufflé bowl that I bought as a “second” in a discount kitchen supply store …. Wonder if they have any more!!

What kind of mushrooms did you use in your soufflé?

After the outcry of V.P. Harris paying so much for a metal pan, one of my friends was looking for a 20 qt. soup pot. I looked online and wowie!

I just used white mushrooms, low key around here. I meant to make stuffed mushrooms for a little dinner party I had, but totally forgot. The souffle was a lot easier
