If I'm being honest, I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms and neither is Matthew. In fact, we don't like them at all. But, you know what makes a great appetizer? Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms! And, we didn't have this realization until these were made, pictures were taken and we finally had the chance to try one. The combination of the meat, cheese and onion in a low carb vehicle makes this recipe worth trying and making time and time again!
The fun part about this recipe is that you can really use any filler you want. Though, normally these are made with cream cheese we opted for cheddar cheese for a stronger bite and better aesthetic. The onion adds a great crunch and the best part about stuffing something with its self is that there is no waste! The mushroom acts with dual purpose in this recipe. Next time I make this I'll probably use an even stronger cheese - maybe blue - and add more crunch with celery! Yum!
Baking these mushrooms is an important step in the process. By doing so the mushroom caps get soft enough to eat in one bite. It also melds all the ingredients together into a creamy, crunchy, cohesive filling! A tip I have for you is to scoop out the mushrooms a little with a spoon so that you can get more filling into each cap! This is great especially for those who aren't huge mushrooms fans because you get more sausage, cheese and onion in each bite.
