This idea for using Laughing Cow cheese came to me in my sleep last night.
Normally I just use rice, bread crumbs and cheese to stuff the mushrooms. This recipe is a little different, since I was trying to come up with a low carbohydrate version of the traditional recipe.
What is Laughing Cow cheese?
Laughing Cow cheese is a brand of cheese that is known for its distinctive round, individually wrapped portions. It originated in France and is sold world wide.
Each triangle portion of the cheese contains around 35-50 calories, depending on the flavor you use. There are several flavors to try including the French onion variety that I used in today’s recipe.
Are you wondering what to do with Laughing Cow cheese other than eating it plain as a snack?
The cheese is soft and spreadable, with a smooth texture and a mild, creamy taste. This makes it perfect to use as a stuffing for my stuffed portobello mushroom recipe.
I also like to use it as a spread for sandwiches, crackers, crostinis, or with fresh vegetables.
