In a separate bowl, break apart the canned tuna with a fork, then add the blended mixture and half of the grated cheese, stirring well together.

Prepare the button mushrooms by marinating them with salt, black pepper, parsley flakes, and olive oil.

Sprinkle the remainder of the cheese on top of the stuffed mushrooms.
