I’ve been making these tasty tidbits at Christmastime for years. Use Italian sausage if you’d prefer a little more zing.

Ingredients

3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup pork-flavored stuffing mix
24 large fresh mushrooms
3/4 pound bulk pork sausage
1 small onion, finely chopped
2-1/4 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
2-1/4 teaspoons ground mustard
1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. In a small saucepan, bring water and butter just to a boil. Remove from the heat; stir in stuffing mix. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, remove stems from mushrooms and finely chop stems; set caps aside. In a large skillet, cook the sausage, onion and chopped mushrooms over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
3. Fluff stuffing with a fork; add to sausage mixture. Stir in parsley and mustard. Stuff into mushroom caps.
4. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until mushrooms are tender.
