Appetizers
Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms

Make Ahead
The filling can be prepared ahead of time (even the day before). And the mushrooms can be stuffed ahead of time and refrigerated. Just add a few minutes to the baking time to compensate.

I love, love, love mushrooms and I think my favorite way to eat them is stuffed. They can be stuffed with pretty much anything and the options are endless.
Type Of Sausage
Use either hot, mild, or sweet Italian sausage depending on the amount of heat and the flavor you want. You could even use chorizo. That would be delicious.

Substitutions For Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms
The Monterey Jack cheese could also be switched out for cheddar cheese or Parmesan or even mozzarella.
