Must Eat: Fool Proof Stuffed Mushrooms

My mom makes stuffed mushrooms every boxing day! I am sure many people don't think "christmas" when they think stuffed mushrooms,but I sure do. The reason I like making them so much as an adult besides nostalgia,is that the filling freezes nicely and you can whip them up in a pinch for quick meal for yourself or an impressive appetizer for guests.



What you need:
- Lean Ground Pork or  Bacon
- Shredded Cheese (I use Kraft Italiano Cheese)
- Bread Crumbs
- Parmesan Cheese
- Whole White Mushrooms

Cook your meat in a frying pan and put it on paper towel to soak up some of the excess moisture.
While your meat is cooking,clean whole white mushrooms and remove the stems. You can also chop the stems up and put them in the filling if you dont like to waste!
When meat is complete mix equal parts of all your ingredients in a big bowl.
Dry your mushrooms caps,so no excess water is inside.
Fill the mushroom caps,and put the remaining filling in a ziploc container in the freezer! You can put the frozen filling in mushroom caps in the future.

Cook the filled mushroom caps in the oven at 425 degrees for about 15 min! I paired mine with a butternut squash soup for a tasty fall lunch!

Enjoy!!
