Why, helllooo mister Jimmy Dean. Have you met Ms. Cream Cheese? Because I think you two would really hit it off. Truly. So please, mix, mingle, meld.
Need a place to hang out? Well, lookie here, why don't you take a sit in one of these mushroom caps. They're roomy and comfortable and let's just face it, meaty. And meaty is good. You're not cold are you? Let's see what we got here...
Ah, yes, a blanket of a Parmesan Cheese and bread crumbs. That's the ticket! Please get all snuggled in underneath. And lastly, how about some ambiance? I'm talking steam bath here, Jimmy Dean, you can't say no to that now can you? Didn't think so...
Alright... I really have no idea where that all came from, I guess that's just what stuffed mushrooms bring out in me. And why wouldn't they? It is spicy Jimmy Bean sausage and cream cheese and mushroom and please, just a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top, if you don't mind. They are delicious and poppable and well, just party perfect in every way. So, enough of the silliness, do what you do and pop these in the oven just as fast as possible, because the sooner you do that, the sooner you can pop them in your mouth!
Spicy Stuffed Mushrooms
From Mom's kitchen
2 dozen large mushrooms (plus or minus a few)
1 package Jimmy Dean Hot Sausage
1 8 oz package cream cheese
Panko bread crumbs
Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 375. Clean mushrooms with a damp cloth. Remove stems and scoop out a little bit of insides if necessary to get a good mushroom like cup. Place cup side up in a rimmed baking dish.
Brown and drain sausage. In large mixing bowl, combine with cream cheese. If you are experimenting, here is where you can add things. Stuff sausage cream cheese mixture firmly into mushroom caps, letting them overflow slightly. Sprinkle with Panko bread crumbs and press down to secure. Sprinkle generously with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and press down to secure.
Add 1 Tbsp of water to baking dish with stuffed mushrooms. Place in 375 and bake for 20-25 minutes. Serve hot!
