MEXICAN STUFFED MUSHROOMS

I got this recipe from another website, but I have no idea which one. It's different from most other stuffed mushroom recipes I've found here, and is a wonderful appetizer for a Mexican meal. As a bonus, these are relatively low-fat. My personal preference is to use smaller mushrooms, just enough for a mouthful. Otherwise, it gets pretty messy! Please note, the stuffing mix should be unseasoned. No matter how hard I try, the database automatically adds the word "seasoned" to the phrase "stuffing mix".

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb whole mushroom (I use Cremini)
1/3 cup green onion, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon cumin, ground
1/4 cup water
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (4 ounce) can green chili peppers, chopped
1/4-1/2 lb monterey jack pepper cheese, shredded
2 cups unseasoned seasoned stuffing mix (I use Pepperidge Farm)

Steps:

  • Twist mushroom stems free from caps, trim dried ends, and finely chop the stems.
  • In a frying pan, combine mushroom stems, green onions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and water. Bring to a boil and cook until water evaporates and veggies begin to brown.
  • Add tomato sauce, peppers, and 1/2 the cheese. Remove from the heat and stir in the stuffing mix.
  • Preheat the oven to 400° and spray a 9X13 inch baking pan with cooking spray. I like to use olive oil flavored spray.
  • Mound a teaspoon or so of the stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap (depending on the size of the cap), then place in the baking pan. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 15 - 20 minutes, until the cheese is lightly browned.

2 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and sliced (optional)
2 cups queso Anejo cheese

  • Spread 2 tablesoons of salsa (approximate) on each mushroom, smoothing out- if they are big, add just a touch more, etc.
  • Divide out the chopped poblanos among the mushrooms and place over the salsa.
  • Sprinkle with sliced jalapenos (this will make the mushrooms spicy) over the poblanos.
  • Cover each mushroom with about 1/2 cup shredded queso anejo cheese.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mushrooms. Portobello mushrooms are the best choice for stuffing because they are large and have a meaty texture.
  • Prepare the mushrooms properly. Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems. Use a spoon to scoop out the gills from the inside of the mushroom caps.
  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the stuffed mushrooms will taste.
  • Don't overstuff the mushrooms. The stuffing should be packed tightly, but not so tightly that it bursts out of the mushrooms when they are baked.
  • Bake the mushrooms at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the outsides of the mushrooms and give them a crispy texture.

Conclusion:

Mexican stuffed mushrooms are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can be made ahead of time. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is sure to be a Mexican stuffed mushroom recipe that everyone will enjoy.
