Ah, stuffed mushrooms—bite-sized, savory little treats that are crispy on top and tender inside! 🍄✨ They’re perfect as an appetizer or snack.
Basic Components:
- Mushrooms – usually button or cremini mushrooms, stems removed.
- Filling – can include breadcrumbs, cheese, garlic, herbs, and sometimes cooked sausage or veggies.
- Topping – extra cheese, breadcrumbs, or herbs for a golden finish.
How It Works:
- Prep mushrooms: Remove stems and clean the caps.
- Make filling: Mix breadcrumbs, cheese (like Parmesan or cream cheese), garlic, herbs, and any optional add-ins like cooked bacon or spinach.
- Stuff: Spoon the mixture into the mushroom caps.
- Bake: In a preheated oven (~375°F / 190°C) for 15–20 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Serve: Warm, straight from the oven.
Fun Tips:
- Cheesy twist: Mix mozzarella with the filling for extra gooeyness.
- Herbs: Parsley, thyme, or chives add freshness.
- Quick version: Use pre-made garlic herb breadcrumbs for a super fast option.
