Daily Double Stuffed Mushrooms
Stuffed mushrooms are a classic and this is my take on this classic recipe. They are easy to make, don’t need to be heated, are easily held in the hand and delicious. The addition of the bacon really adds flavor to the mushrooms. They can be cooked the day prior to the Party and served at room temperature or warmed.
