Ingredients:

  • 24 large white button mushrooms, cleaned and stems removed

  • 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened (you can use a dairy-free alternative for a dairy-free version)

  • 1/4 cup cooked and crumbled sausage (use a low-carb or turkey sausage for a leaner option)

  • 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or dairy-free alternative)

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

  • Olive oil for brushing


Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare the Mushrooms:

  • Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems. Use a spoon to carefully hollow out each mushroom cap to make room for the stuffing. Set the mushroom caps aside.

3. Prepare the Filling:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crumbled sausage, chopped fresh parsley, diced red bell peppers, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese (or dairy-free alternative). Mix until all the ingredients are well combined.

4. Season:

  • Taste the filling and season with salt and black pepper according to your preference. The sausage and Parmesan cheese add some saltiness, so adjust as needed.

5. Fill the Mushrooms:

  • Take each mushroom cap and generously fill it with the cream cheese and sausage mixture, mounding it slightly.

6. Arrange and Brush:

  • Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops of the stuffed mushrooms lightly with olive oil.

7. Bake:

  • Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden and slightly bubbly.

8. Serve:

  • Remove the stuffed mushrooms from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

9. Enjoy:

  • Serve these delicious low-carb stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer or party snack. They're sure to be a hit!
