Stuffed Portobello Mushroom Caps
Serves 8
This dish substitutes goat or sheep milk cheese for cow’s milk cheese. If your problem is lactose intolerance, you may want to omit the cheese altogether. However, most people who are truly allergic to cow’s milk are able to tolerate milk of sheep and goats with no adverse reactions.
