I’m so excited about this post today. Not only are these Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms one of my all time favorite starters, I actually made a speedy video of the simple process of making them!
If you’ve had stuffed mushrooms before but haven’t been impressed, I want you to try these. I think you’ll be amazed at flavorful combination of breakfast sausage, spinach, garlic and parmesan cheese. The cream cheese and heavy cream give them an obvious creaminess that make these taste like they came from a fine restaurant and just melt in your mouth.
You can serve these mushrooms as an appetizer, or eat several of them as a meal. You can also use this same recipe to stuff Portobello mushrooms for an entree-size serving. Scroll to the bottom to see the quick video, and please share on your favorite social media sites! I hope you enjoy!
