Our holidays aren’t complete without Mom’s stuffed mushrooms. We aren’t much of a stuffing family. We are a family that calls it stuffing and never “dressing.”
Maybe it’s Midwest thing?
I think that has a lot to do with these stuffed mushrooms. No stuffing could match these! No kidding, she has to serve these on a platter big enough to serve a luau pig because none of us can get enough.
We start swiping them as soon as the platter hits the counter.
These stuffed mushrooms are a perfect appetizer or side dish, and always great for seconds. Rather than making a side of traditional dry stuffing, try these instead!
I hope they’re as much a blessing to your family as they are to ours! Just remember to bring a BIG platter.
Do you call it stuffing too?
I know you’ll enjoy these!

Our families kind of interchange it…sometimes stuffing and sometimes it is dressing. Recipe sounds delish..I love mushrooms. 🙂
