Notes

Recipe Variations

    • Use panko bread crumbs in place of regular bread crumbs for added crunch
    • Swap out the parsley for fresh sage, rosemary, or thyme
    • Use feta or blue cheese instead of goat cheese
    • Add chopped dried cranberries for a touch of sweetness
    • Add crumbled sausage or use it as a substitute for the bacon
    • Add chopped walnuts or pecans for a nutty flavor

 

Storing Leftovers

Leftover stuffed mushrooms can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-5 days and reheated in the oven, on the stovetop in skillet, or in the microwave. Since they are already fully cooked, the main goal is just to heat them through for the best flavor.
To freeze, assemble according to instructions. Once they are fully assembled, place them in a freezer-safe container for up to 6 months. To bake, simply remove them from the freezer, place them on a baking sheet, and bake at 450° for 20 minutes or until fully heated through.
