How To Make cheesy bacon stuffed mushrooms - cass's

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Spray baking dish large enough to hold 12 mushrooms. I used my mini muffin tin. They stay in place nicely.
  • Step 2
    In a small skillet, add about a tbsp olive oil. Over med heat; add the minced stems and onion. Saute for about 3 minutes, or until all the liquid has evaporated from the stems, and onions are soft. Add the minced garlic, continue cooking for another minute or so. Add a bit more oil if necessary. Set aside to cool.
  • Step 3
    In the meantime, clean mushrooms, brushing off any dirt softly with a paper towel.
  • Step 4
    In a medium bowl; stir softened cream cheese with remaining ingredients.
  • Step 5
    Spoon about a tablespoon full into each mushroom cap. I then dipped the top of the mushroom into the Parmesan cheese.
  • Step 6
    Bake for 18 - 20 minutes. Enjoy!
