How to Make Bacon And Bleu Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Clean 1 pound of large mushrooms and remove stems; set stems aside. Place mushroom caps top-side down on a baking sheet.
- Chop 4 ounces of bacon into 1/4-inch pieces. Cook in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet.
- Finely chop the reserved mushroom stems (about 1/2 cup). Add to the skillet with 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened and mushrooms release their liquid.
- Stir in 1/2 cup breadcrumbs. Cook for 1 minute more, until breadcrumbs are lightly toasted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of crumbled bleu cheese (or 8 ounces cream cheese if omitting bleu cheese), 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, and the cooled mushroom mixture. Mix well.
- Spoon the mixture into the mushroom caps, creating a slightly rounded top.
- Sprinkle the reserved crispy bacon over the stuffed mushrooms.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender and filling is heated through.
