Carrabba's Three Cheese and Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe
I don't like mushrooms. In fact, I go out of my way to pick them out of things.
You'll sometimes see me put them into recipes because I do believe they contribute a good flavor, but usually, I leave them out. That said, these sausage stuffed mushroom caps with goat cheese are some of the most delicious bite-sized morsels I've ever eaten. In fact, I could make a meal out of them every single day.
Perfect for any party
With a perfect mixture of sausage, cheese, mushroom and spices these stuffed mushrooms will be a hit whether you serve them as appetizers at a holiday or for the big game. Or, be like me and eat them as a meal. No sharing. 🙂
They have some health benefits too
According to The Mushroom Council (Yes, there is such a thing), mushrooms are low in calories, fat-free, cholesterol-free, gluten-free and very low in sodium. They are rich in B vitamins, which help to provide energy through the breakdown of proteins, fats and carbs. They contain Niacin, which helps to maintain healthy red blood cells, and pantothenic acid, which promotes healthy skin and benefits the digestive and nervous systems.
Overall, they're a great food to have as a part of your diet. If you are like me though and are selective about your mushroom love, you can make them this way and still get your nutrients.
Works for multiple diets
I love these stuffed mushrooms because they are low carb, Keto friendly and you can make them Whole 30 approved by just removing the cheese. I promise they will still be amazing if you remove the cheese. The cheese just makes them more amazing-er.
