Description
I popped a few of these into my mouth before someone handed me the "keys" to a 2012 Bentley Mulsanne - I consider these stuffed mushrooms to be good luck of the highest order. Besides there's only 3 ingredients...
Ingredients
| 8 | oz | mushrooms, button (Medium sized, very fresh) |
| 1⁄4 | lb | kerrygold grassfed milk blue cheese (Or the funkiest blue cheese you can find) |
| 2 | sli | bacon, thick cut (Applegate Farms is the fave) |
Notes
I don't even remember who was catering, only that no one was saying no - I didn't know a soul there, but being on a mission - WOULD they let me drive it? Would anyone know my Jimmy Choo flats were from eBay? A few months before, I had taken a short spin in a Tesla, so why not, right? Safe driving record, up to date insurance - never mind the fact that the car was brand new and worth more than several houses combined. I learned later the darned thing might be smarter than me, and has all these "anti self destruct" features built into it - sure it's the size of a yacht, but if it was any easier to drive you could do it in your sleep. Besides, this was just another turn in the ongoing game of Truth or Dare I seem so bent on playing. If I haven't learned anything else, its that you just have to ask.
They handed me the keys, or rather, the little highly polished square you just had to have near the car. I was the first one to test drive it that day. It feels like I can't even tell you - not without imitating Jeremy Clarkson and making extreme facial contortions.
Instructions
I hope you bought 1/4lb of the funkiest blue cheese... I mean - the sort that makes you want to compulsively wash your hands about 10 times. I think this Kerrygold grass fed milk stuff is definitely pretty awesome, so try that. Their butter is really quite good too, BulletproofExec got me onto that.
Preheat oven to 400 Degrees Fahrenheit
Wash the mushrooms and remove the stems - cut up the blue cheese into little cubes, put the cheese in the mushrooms - overstuff EVER so slightly. Set these aside.
Get out granny's cast iron skillet (I actually used the 2 small cast iron skillets) cut the 2 bacon strips into 6 pieces total - brown them in the skillet(s) when they're browned and there's a good bit of bacon grease in the pan(s) take the bacon out and let it cool on a plate while you put the cheese stuffed mushrooms in the pan - making sure they all stay upright. Break up the bacon and place a piece on the top of each mushroom. Put in the oven for about 10 minutes. Make sure the mushrooms are nice and squishy. Let cool slightly then if no one is looking, eat them with your hands. They're also a great next to a steak and greens - which was my original plan, but I ended up eating more of them - the steak will wait for breakfast. Life is GOOD!! Also, save the juice from the pan - it's salad dressing waiting to happen. Drizzle it over greens!
