Stuffed mushrooms are easy to make and definitely a crowd pleaser. Whenever you set out appetizers, they usually are on the menu along with a cheese balls and maybe a shrimp appetizer. We find that the mushrooms are usually the first to go.

The mushrooms that we used for this recipe are large Bellas;  they are great to hold the filling and hold up their shape when baked.

The ingredients in this recipe are a combination of butter, onions, garlic, cream cheese, monterey jack cheese, chopped mushroom stems, bacon, and bread crumbs. All flavors that make these a great tasting appetizer for any party or get together.

 

 

 

Making the stuffed mushrooms:

We start out by taking the stems off of the mushrooms and chopping them up, if there are any hard parts, cut them off and discard them.

Cook some bacon up till crisp and chop into little pieces. Next, melt the butter in a pan and sauté the finely chopped onions. Then, add the grated garlic into the butter. Cook for about 1 minute and add the mushroom stems and sauté till they become a little soft, about 2 minutes.

Put the mixture into each mushroom cap, try to make it as even as possible or fill them up based on each size.
