Recipe: Sausage and Cheddar Stuffed Mushrooms

This recipe for Sausage and Cheddar Stuffed Mushrooms is adapted from my Crab Stuffed Mushrooms... both are excellent and easy to make.... great for a party or even just an appetizer before a meal.

TIPS

I use breakfast sausage.... the breakfast sausage you use is up to you... there are numerous options out there... "regular" breakfast sausage... spicy breakfast sausage... chicken or turkey flavored sausages... just remember the predominant flavor will be the sausage.. so pick one you like.

Be sure to use sharp cheddar cheese ... it really adds flavor.. the milder cheddars get lost in all the other flavors.

I chop the onion in my mini chopper to get it finely chopped.

I used a good non-stick pan I have... if you don't have a good non-stick baking pan... line your pan with non-stick foil.
