Directions
Cheddar-Walnut Stuffed Mushrooms, If you use medium-size mushrooms for this, you should get anywhere from 35-40 mushroom caps depending on the size of mushrooms that you use, so yield is only estimated, you can reduce the recipe to half if desired To save time you can stuff the mushrooms up to 5 hours in advance This recipe can easily be doubled I usually make up about 4 pounds of mushrooms to serve these at my get togethers especially around holiday season, they are huge hit, and vanish very quickly, everyone wants this recipe! I like to sprinkle just a small amount of Parmesan cheese over the top of the mushrooms before baking but that is optional, make certain to use only toasted walnuts and fresh finely chopped parsley for this recipe, it makes a huge difference in the taste! I strongly suggest to place the mushroom caps stem-side down on a baking sheet and bake for about 12-15 minutes in a 375F oven to release their moisture before stuffing them otherwise you might end up with caps that are very watery , Made these late afternoon yesterday to take to an appetizer party These are quite labor intensive! I ended up with 38 medium sized mushrooms but had at least half the stuffing left over These were okay, but lack something The effort didn’t seem worth the end result I stuck each with a colored toothpick then put them in tiny halloween muffin liners and then on a serving tray so there wouldn’t be juice running all over , If you use medium-size mushrooms for this, you should get anywhere from 35-40 mushroom caps depending on the size of mushrooms that you use, so yield is only estimated, you can reduce the recipe to half if desired To save time you can stuff the mushrooms up to 5 hours in advance This recipe can easily be doubled I usually make up about 4 pounds of mushrooms to serve these at my get togethers especially around holiday season, they are huge hit, and vanish very quickly, everyone wants this recipe!
