Puffball Parmigiana

Puffball Parmigiana

This puffball parmigiana recipe is a delicious way to showcase your finest giant puffball mushroom find.

These are best assembled just before serving, though you can also layer the slices, sauce, and cheese, bake, slice, and serve with the pasta to make this ahead of time or for a crowd... the mushroom breading won't be crispy but it will still be delicious!
