stuffed mushrooms

something so simple that will wow ur guests… and urself :)

stuffed mushrooms

ingredients:

• 1# ground italian sausage [i like to use hot]

• 16-20oz button or crimini mushrooms

• 4oz gouda cheese, shredded

• 1 bunch chives, minced

• olive oil, as needed

• 2/3 cup breadcrumbs [i like to use panko]

• s&p, tt

• red pepper flakes [optional and tt]

• 2 tsp dehydrated onion

• 2 tsp garlic powder

directions:

1. preheat oven to 375F. grab a sauté pan and brown the italian sausage. while that is browning, prep ur mushrooms by removing their stems, finely chopping them, and setting to the side. line mushrooms up on a baking sheet.

2. now it’s time to make the filling - start by grabbing a large bowl and add literally everything to it - including the cooked sausage and its fat plus those mushrooms stems u just chopped. mix together with ur hands. for when it says ‘olive oil as needed’ - it just depends on how much fat ur sausage produced. u may need to add more or less.

3. anyway, fill each mushroom cap mounded with filling. top with more shredded gouda or really any cheese that u would like and drizzle with olive oil. bake for 15ish mins. remove from oven and please enjoy.
