Ingredients
  

  • - 1 1/2 lbs mushrooms button, cremini, or a mix, sliced
  • - 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • - 2 cloves garlic minced
  • - 1/2 tsp dried thyme or 1 tsp fresh
  • - 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • **Preheat the Oven:** Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
  • **Cook the Mushrooms:** Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown. Add garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
  • **Make the Sauce:** In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese. Stir in half of the mozzarella cheese.
  • **Assemble the Casserole:** Transfer the cooked mushrooms to the prepared baking dish. Pour the creamy sauce over the mushrooms, spreading it evenly. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and breadcrumbs.
  • **Bake:** Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
  • **Garnish and Serve:** Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
