Easy Appetizer: Bacon & Blue Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms


Stuffed mushrooms have been a regular appetizer at my dinner parties for years. It's one of those dishes I always without fail get rave reviews on. I've always used a simple recipe including bread crumbs, Parmesan, and diced artichokes. Last year for the first time I switched up my stuffed mushroom recipe, and I came up with a new favorite, Bacon & Blue Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms. These stuffed mushrooms are a quick and easy appetizer for your holiday dinner, and you can prep them ahead of time and assemble and bake right before serving.

INGEDIENTS
  • 20 button mushrooms
  • 10 slices bacon
  • 8 oz blue cheese (Use grated blue marble jack cheese for an extra spicy kick.)
  • 1 C finely grated parmesan
  • 1 C fine bread crumbs
  • 1 stick melted butter

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prep the mushrooms: wipe clean with a damp paper towel (do not rinse or soak with water, because they'll absorb excess water - not a good thing for cooking with mushrooms), pull out stems and use a metal teaspoon to scoop out the dark brown part under the cap. Lightly coat a shallow baking or casserole dish with nonstick cooking oil. Arrange caps in the baking dish with the underside of the caps facing upward. Set aside. *You can do this part the night before if you want. Simply cover the baking dish and refrigerate.

2. Fry the bacon, crumble or chop it and put it into a large glass bowl.

3. Add remaining ingredients into bowl with the chopped bacon and mix well with a large spoon. *You could also use this as a stopping point the day before. Cover and refrigerate the filled mushrooms until you're ready to bake them.

4. Bake at 450 degrees for approximately 20 minutes. Enjoy!

    1. It's a strong-flavored cheese. I think people mostly either love it or hate it. I absolutely love it!!

  2. Blue cheese is almost the best cheese in the whole wide world William Kendall! Try it but try not to eat your fingers while at it. Hahhaha
    I'm certainly preparing this recipe. Thanks for sharing it.
