    Easy Appetizers for a Crowd

    These little bites would be great for your next party or get-together. They are sophisticated enough to serve as an appetizer for your holiday party or casual enough for the Super Bowl Party. This recipe yields 20-30 mushrooms, so there is just enough for me. 🙂  They really are delicious and I can't wait to make them again.

    Ingredients

    mushrooms and ingredients
    • Medium Mushrooms

    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

    sautéing sausage

    In a medium-size sauté pan over medium-high heat olive oil.  Add the Italian sausage into the hot pan, and cook the sausage while breaking it up into fine crumbles. 

    minced shallot

    Once browned, add minced shallot and garlic cloves and sauté for another minute.  Remove the sausage mixture from the pan, and set it aside. 

    mixing ingredients

    In a bowl stir to combine mix bread crumbs and 1 tablespoon of parmesan cheese till finely chopped to a breadcrumb.

    Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. For added golden color, broil mushrooms for the last minute.

    On a sheet pan, arrange mushrooms an inch or two apart. Fill mushroom caps with sausage crumble till it's overflowing.  Sprinkle bread crumb mixture over the top of each filled mushroom.

    Happy Entertaining! 

    Additional Questions

    Here are a few questions you might have now that you starting to make this dish.

    Why are my stuffed mushrooms soggy?

    Mushrooms generally contain water and when you bake them the water tends to pool at the bottom. If you bake your mushroom caps upside down on the pan in the oven for 10-12 minutes while you are cooking the stuffing, the water will run out on the pan.

    How do you clean mushrooms for stuffing?

    There are people that say to wash them underwater, and there are those that suggest just wiping them down. I like cleaning my produce, so I wash mine.

    Will cooking mushrooms kill bacteria?

    Yes, cooking mushrooms does kill bacteria. More reason to stuff and cook those babies.
