Whether you’re in need of a fun dinner party appetizer or a flavorful light weeknight meal, these 3 Cheese Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms will bring the restaurant experience to your table! My husband was inspired to create this recipe after sampling a variety of delicious stuffed mushrooms from local eateries and, luckily, his version is oh-so-easy to make at home!
The filling is crispy, cheesy, and herby, perfectly complimenting the mushrooms!
COOKING & STORAGE NOTE: If the mushrooms will not all be eaten the day of cooking, I highly recommend storing the stuffed, but uncooked, mushrooms sealed in the refrigerator. The leftovers are much more delicious when they are baked fresh (rather than reheating the fully cooked version)!
