How to Make Bbq Cottage Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms

Preheat your BBQ to medium-low heat (or preheat your oven to 375°F/190°C).
Gently remove the stems from about 1 pound of large mushrooms (cremini, button, or portobello work well). Finely chop the stems.
In a bowl, combine the chopped mushroom stems with 8 ounces of cottage cheese, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh chives, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Fill each mushroom cap generously with the cottage cheese mixture, ensuring it's level with the top. Sprinkle a little extra black pepper over the filling.
If using a BBQ, lightly oil the grill grates. Place the stuffed mushrooms on the coolest part of the grill, away from direct heat, with the lid closed. Cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the mushroom caps are soft and slightly darkened.
If using an oven, place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
