Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms

Morsels of Life - Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms - Fill some button mushrooms with a bacon and onion cream cheese mixture to make Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms.

When I saw this recipe on Mountain Mama Cooks, I knew I wanted to give it a try. Fortunately, I had mushrooms and cream cheese around! I decided to make a quarter the amount Kelley did, mainly because I only had four ounces of button mushrooms. It made the perfect amount for one serving each. However, this recipe actually gets more efficient if you're making a large batch because regardless of your batch size, you only make your filling and bake once. Aside from scaling the recipe down, the only major change I made was substituting onion powder for the minced onion. She mentioned the mushrooms getting soggy because of a mushroom's high water content. Using onion powder instead mitigates the moisture issue by both removing the moisture from fresh onion as well as having the powder soak up some moisture. These Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms aren't too pretty, but they sure make up for it in taste!

  1. Yum! Stuffed mushrooms are one of my favorite treats. I usually use sausage instead of bacon though. I'll have to give these a try!

  7. #bacononeverything! I made a chicken and mushroom dish last night which was delicious but all I could think was, "This should also have bacon in it." You did it right with these babies! Thanks for bringing this to #SaucySaturdays.
