Vegetarian Stuffed Mushroom Recipe
Stuffed Mushrooms, Hold the Meat
If you're looking to expand your entertaining repertoire, you can do no better than stuffed mushrooms. Classic and crowd-pleasing, this finger food can even be easily prepped in advance.
While many recipes are bolstered with sausage or bacon, mushrooms are meaty and satisfying enough on their own, so I prefer to make them vegetarian-friendly when making them for a party.
This recipe gets the bulk of its filling from greens (spinach and arugula), but it's not too virtuous-tasting. Savory-sweet sun-dried tomatoes, nutty pine nuts, and sharp red onion pack in ample flavor for a bite that'll please everyone from vegans to the bacon-addicted.
