Stuffed Savory Mushrooms

I love happy hour with friends after work, and these steakhouse-style stuffed mushrooms let you have that at home in no time. These bad boys deliver deep umami flavor, hearty texture, and creamy finish without meat, oil, or heaviness—perfect for an elevated appetizer that satisfies like a restaurant favorite every time. Your friends and family will love them.
