Stuffed Mushrooms!!!

Stuffed Mushrooms:


These are super yummy! I just made them for the first time last night and they are wonderful! A little spicy and vegetarian friendly- but don't worry carnivores, you won't miss the meat! Or, you can always add bacon!

What you will need:
20-25 whtie mushrooms
1 T minced garlic
1 T butter
1/4 t cayenne pepper
1/4 t onion powder
salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
8 oz cream cheese
1/4 c grated parmesan cheese
(cooked and crumbled bacon- optional)

1- Preheat oven to 375. Wash mushrooms and remove stems from caps. Set stems aside, and place caps (hole side up) in a baking dish.

2- Finely chop stems. Sautee chopped stems and garlic in butter. Add cayanne, onion powder, salt and pepper. Cook until stems are soft and most of the moisture is gone. Remove from heat and set aside and allow to cool for a few minutes.

3- Soften cream cheese. Add parmesan cheese and mushrooms-garlic blend. (If adding bacon, mix in now). Thuroughly mix together. Place a heaping spoonful of cheese-mushroom blend in mushroom caps.

4- Bake at 375 for 20 min. Liquid will start to gather in the bottom of the baking dish. (I let mine sit under the broiler for 1-2 minutes after the baking time, just to slightly brown the tops). Enjoy!!
