I have never met a stuffed mushroom that I didn’t like…and this one for sure doesn’t disappoint. I wanted to pop in and share this…it would be a perfect snack to serve up for your New Year’s Eve celebrating….even if that is just you in your pj’s:) The hubs and I are beach bound for the new year. A nice little getaway before we get back into the daily grind of school . We will be toasting in the new year in our comfy pants with our fav cocktail in hand….cheers:)
I have made similar recipes but I like this one because I could make the mixture ahead of time and just stuff as many mushrooms as I wanted to and bake. I kept the mixture in my fridge for about 4 days and just stuffed mushrooms when we were having some company or we just wanted to have a few to munch on.
If you’re having company over you could stuff them and leave them in the fridge and bake them when people show up. I recommend baking them on parchment paper. It seems to absorb a little bit of the moisture from the mushrooms.
I used a slotted spatula to get them off the pan so that there wasn’t so much mushroom juice on my platter. I wish you a very Happy New Year and I will be back soon with lots of fun things to share.
