Grandma Nancys Stuffed Mushrooms Recipes

STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Brush a baking sheet with 1 teaspoon of the oil.
• Finely chop the mushroom stems and set aside. Place the mushroom caps on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushroom stems, spinach, onion, and garlic and saute until the spinach wilts, about 6 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes more. Turn off the heat and stir in the parsley, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons each of the pecorino and panko.
• Preheat the broiler. Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the mushroom caps. Sprinkle each with the remaining 1 tablespoon pecorino and panko, then broil until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm.

STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Stir the bread crumbs, Pecorino Romano, garlic, parsley, mint, salt and pepper, to taste, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium bowl to blend.
• Drizzle a heavy large baking sheet with about 1 tablespoon olive oil, to coat. Spoon the filling into the mushroom cavities and arrange on the baking sheet, cavity side up. Drizzle remaining oil over the filling in each mushroom. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is heated through and golden on top, about 25 minutes. Serve.

SAVORY STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and once hot, add the turkey sausage and cook, breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon, about 2 minutes. Once the sausage is beginning to brown, add the mushroom stems and continue to cook until soft and the turkey is cooked through. Add the garlic and briefly saute until fragrant. Stir in the white wine and scrap up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine has evaporated. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Add the blue cheese, breadcrumbs and parsley to the sauteed mixture and stir to combine.
• Place the mushroom caps cavity-side up on the a sheet tray. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon the filling into the cavities and drizzle again with olive oil. You may need to pack down the filling with your hands. Bake 20 minutes.

SAUSAGE-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil, sausage and shallots. Saute until browned, breaking up the sausage into small pieces with a wooden spoon, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the browned sausage and reserved mushroom stems to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until combined. Add the pine nuts and pulse a few more times until slightly smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl and fold in the Swiss cheese, Gruyere and cream.
• Add the breadcrumbs and parsley to a small bowl and mix to combine.
• Place the mushroom caps hollow-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Using a tablespoon, spoon the mushroom and sausage mixture into each mushroom cap. Top with the breadcrumb mixture. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

GRANDMA NANCY'S MANICOTTI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl combine the ricotta, 1 cup of the grated cheese, eggs, and pepper.
• Fill each crepe with approximately 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture centering it in a straight line down the middle. Top with the shredded mozzarella. Take one end of the crepe and fold over the cheese filling. Then take the other end and pulling slightly, fold over in a wrapping motion overlapping the stuffed portion of the crepe. Repeat until all 12 crepes are filled.
• Spread one cup of the sauce in the bottom of a large baking pan that has been sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray. Place the filled manicotti in the pan, seam down, side-by-side. Do not overlap, and do not layer them. Spoon the remaining sauce over the manicotti. Be sure to cover all the pasta. Sprinkle with the remaining grated cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees F for approximately 30 minutes or until the sauce is hot and bubbling.
• Remove from the oven and let stand for approximately 10 to 15 minutes before serving. This will give the manicotti time to settle which will make for easy serving. The manicotti will fall apart if served immediately.
• In a pan heat the olive oil. Add onions and cook until translucent. Add garlic and cook for a few minutes on medium heat. Do not let garlic burn. Add tomatoes, basil, oregano, and pepper. Let tomato mixture cook for approximately 30 minutes.
