Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe


Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe
Who can resist pizza? A friend served these at a party many years ago, and I fell in love at first bite. You can be as creative as you want, using whatever pizza topping ingredients are your favorites.

Ingredients
  • 12 to 18 mushrooms, nice large “stuffing” size
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 medium onion, finely diced
  • garlic powder, to your taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 4 ounces finely diced pepperoni
  • ¼ cup pizza sauce
  • ½ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons grated parmesan
  • 6 to 8 slices of mozzarella cheese, cut in squares to fit the tops of the mushrooms
  • grated parmesan cheese for sprinkling over tops of mushrooms

Directions
  1. Gently wipe any dirt from the mushrooms and remove the stems.
  2. Finely dice the stems.
  3. Melt butter in skilet, and add stems, onions, seasoning, pepperoni, and any other optional ingredients – sauté until veggies are tender.
  4. Add pizza sauce, bread crumbs and parmesan.
  5. Cook until just heated through and liquid is reduced.
  6. Place mushrooms on a lightly buttered baking sheet - fill mushrooms with cooked filling mixture.
  7. Top filling with a piece of mozzarella cut to just fit over the top of the mushroom.
  8. Sprinkle grated parmesan over the tops.
  9. Bake at 325 degrees about 20 minutes.
  10. Let cool a few minutes before serving, as filling will be very, very hot!
  11. OPTIONAL ingredients: you can create your own "flavor" by using pizza toppings you like best, such as diced green pepper, garlic, black or green olives, anchovies, cooked meats such as Italian sausage or bacon or Canadian bacon - just remember that veggies are best sauteed first, and if you add more amounts of toppings, you will need to adjust seasonings and pizza sauce measurements!

Another tailgate recipe...woohoo!!! ;)


Sounds a bit like the one I did for my taufu stuff. But instead of stuffing taufu with things, I used the taufu to stuff mushroom and tomatoes.... hehehe....


Yum, Krum, yum...


Terrific stuffing idea. Did you see the Hot Italian Stuffed mushrooms I posted last week? There was a good tip to nuke the caps and make it a quick prep, which could be a bad thing. Faster to the hips that way!!! LOL I'll be making these soon. Mushrooms are so versatile. YUM!


This is so creative nad fun I will do more mushroom stuffing!!!


Ohhhhhhhhhh yes ;-) These sound perrrrrrrfect! I have a stuffed mushroom recipe that a German girlfriend taught me but this one might be replacing it. Cheers!!!
