So I know some of you don’t like mushrooms a whole lot, and I hear you. I couldn’t stand them for the longest time. But this recipe, I guarantee you, will change your perception of mushrooms once and for all! And if you’re trying to cut down on meat the way I do and have more veggies in your diet, mushrooms are the way to go. They are the perfect meat replacement with their bold umami flavor. To me, stuffed mushrooms are the perfect appetizer!
These stuffed mushrooms have a nice salty bite from the cheddar, perfectly complimenting the rest of the ingredients. I love serving stuffed mushrooms next to a delicious roast chicken dinner and a big green salad.
