Serves:
Ingredients
- 1lbwhite button mushrooms,thoroughly cleaned
- 8bacon strips,not thick cut
- ½yellow onion,diced
- 8ozgouda cheese,grated
- ½cupbread crumbs
- ½tspdried thyme
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
-
Use a small paring knife to cut the stems out of each mushroom. Make a good-sized divot in the mushrooms, and make sure to leave enough mushroom around the edges to hold the filling. Finely dice the stems and cored bits.
-
Add the bacon to a medium or large skillet over medium heat.
-
Cook for about 6 to 7 minutes until bacon is browned and crispy. Remove the cooked bacon, leaving the grease, and chop into tiny bits.
-
Add the chopped mushroom cores, diced onions, and thyme to the skillet with the reserved bacon grease. Sauté the filling over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the onions are soft.
-
Remove from heat and stir in breadcrumbs and chopped bacon. Let cool.
-
After the mixture has cooled slightly, stir in the grated gouda cheese.
-
Line up the cored mushrooms in a baking dish that has been lightly oiled to prevent sticking. Spoon about 2 heaping tablespoons of the filling into each mushroom, piling it high and packing it in.
-
Bake the stuffed mushrooms for 20 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
-
Serve and enjoy!
