Savory and satisfying, these stuffed mushrooms are filled with a flavorful mixture of Italian sausage, cream cheese, garlic, and herbs, then baked until golden brown for a perfect appetizer or side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 large white mushrooms, stems removed and cleaned
  • 1/2 lb Italian sausage, casing removed
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for drizzling)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or dish.
  2. In a skillet, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat, breaking it apart as it cooks. Add onion and garlic, and cook until the sausage is browned and the onions are softened.
  3. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in cream cheese, Parmesan, mozzarella, breadcrumbs, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Stuff each mushroom cap with the sausage mixture, pressing down gently to fill each mushroom evenly.
  5. Place the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden and bubbly.
  7. Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sausage mixture for a slight kick.
  • Use a combination of pork and turkey sausage for a leaner filling.
  • If you prefer a gluten-free version, use gluten-free breadcrumbs.
  • Can be made ahead and baked just before serving.
