Italian Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms with Kraft #FreshTake #CBias by www.LoveGrowsWild.com

I have a yummy new recipe to share with you today that involves possibly my favorite food in the whole world… Mushrooms! I’ll eat mushrooms any way I can get them, and these Italian Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms are one of the best!
My husband turned 30 this week, and I decided to throw him a surprise birthday party. I invited some friends and family to celebrate with us, starting with a cocktail hour at our home followed by dinner at a fun restaurant. I wanted to keep the menu simple for the cocktail hour so it would be easy to prepare for. My husband would know something was up if he saw me making a ton of food! I decided to pick up a few bottles of wine and make stuffed mushrooms for our guests. They would be pretty simple to put together and would be the perfect little party appetizer to hold guests over until dinner time. After making a quick list, I headed to Walmart to get everything I needed. You can see my full shopping story here.

I’ve had stuffed mushrooms many times before in restaurants, but I’ve never tried making them at home. I knew I wanted to top the mushrooms with cheese, so I headed over to the refrigerated cheese section and found these Kraft Fresh Take Meal Kits. The meal kits come with cheese and a seasoned breadcrumb mixture in a variety of flavors like Rosemary & Roasted Garlic, Italian Parmesan, Smokey Mesquite BBQ, and more. I knew I needed breadcrumbs to bind the stuffing for my mushrooms, so I thought the Kraft Meal Kits would be perfect for my recipe!

I had such a hard time choosing which meal kit I wanted to use, but I ended up buying the Italian Parmesan Fresh Take. The combination of garlic, Italian parsley, and onion paired with Parmesan cheese would be delicious stuffed inside the mushrooms!

I gathered all my ingredients and got to work on the mushrooms. I love how convinent and easy to use the Fresh Take packages are! I used some of the breadcrumbs and Parmesan in the stuffing mixture and saved a bit Parmesan to sprinkle on top of the mushrooms while they bake. Yum!

I stuffed all the mushroom caps and lined them up on a baking sheet ready to go in the oven.

After about 20-25 minutes, the mushrooms came out perfectly cooked with Parmesan cheese melted all over the tops! And oh my goodness were they delicious!

Our party guests loved the flavor of the mushrooms and said they were the perfect little bite. No silverware necessary!

And using Kraft Fresh Take made this recipe so easy to put together. The meal kits come with the perfect breadcrumb and cheese combination already put together! They do all the hard work for you!

Italian Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms
16 ounces white button mushrooms
1/2 onion, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons white wine
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
1 package Kraft Italian Parmesan Fresh Take Meal Kit
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to clean and remove any dirt. Remove the stems of the mushrooms by gently twisting them from the cap. Place the mushrooms caps in a large bowl and set aside. Finely chop the mushroom stems. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the chopped mushroom stems and onion. Cook 4-5 minutes then add the garlic. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the wine to the pan and cook until liquid is evaporated. Turn off the heat and add the parsley, 6 tablespoons of the Kraft Fresh Take breadcrumbs, and 6 tablespoons of the Kraft Fresh Take Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper and mix until combined. Toss the mushroom caps with olive oil and fill the inside of the mushrooms with the stuffing mixture using a small teaspoon. Place the mushrooms on a rimmed baking sheet and top each mushroom with more of the remaining Fresh Take Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes until mushrooms are cooked and cheese is melted. Cool 5 minutes before serving.

    Is there something I could substitute for the white wine?

      Hi Sydnie! Yes, you could use a bit of broth in place of the wine. Thanks for the great question!

    Can these be prepped early in the day and baked at a later time?

      Hi Catie! I haven’t tested it out yet, but I imagine that would work well. I also have a sausage stuffed mushrooms recipe that I know can be prepped ahead! https://lovegrowswild.com/2015/01/sausage-stuffed-mushrooms/

Who wants to go shopping with me?! Well, virtuall Who wants to go shopping with me?!

Well, virtually... but I promise it will still be fun! I took a trip to a store I've never been to before and found some of the prettiest decor for such a good deal at @tuesdaymorning. #ad After all the snow we've had the last few weeks, getting out of the house and putting real clothes on for a solo shopping trip felt like such a treat!

A few of my favorite finds were: an extra-long lumbar pillow for my sofa, beautiful black textured bowls that I can't decide if I want to actually use in my kitchen or decorate with, a bouquet of dried greenery, and a new dog bed for Remington. I will be sharing how I styled these items on the blog next week, so stay tuned!

Swipe to see video of my shopping trip and all that you can find at a Tuesday Morning near you! Do you have a store close to you? Have you been before? Let me know in the comments!

Later this week: sharing a home decor shopping trip to a store I’ve never been to before, photographing my office (just wait till you see how big of a difference adding some shelves in here made), unboxing tons of new spring items for @lovegrowswildmarket, and adding some artwork to this blank wall!

Yesterday I had a design meeting with one of my to Yesterday I had a design meeting with one of my toughest clients yet... my teenage son. 😂 Actually, he is probably the easiest person to please, and his requests for the upcoming bedroom makeover we are planning were pretty simple:

• blackout curtains so he can sleep in on weekends
• a new darker paint color
• somewhere to charge all his devices

I think I can handle that! This room is quite a challenge with the small size & layout, but I think we’ve come up with a game plan to make it more functional and much more “him”. 

Once I catch up on all my current projects and design work, I’m excited to dive into making this space perfect for him! P.S. where did my little boy go that wanted Thomas the Train as the theme in his bedroom? 🥺

One of the biggest challenges in this space was finding the right size furniture to maximize the small space & functionality without sacrificing design. She wanted to keep the house light, bright and airy while still feeling warm & cozy, and this feels like the right balance with soft whites & grays paired with wood tones & natural fibers. 

You can get all the details on this MASSIVE renovation & all the decor sources on the blog!

Now that the snow is almost melted, I can’t help but daydream about what I’m going to plant this year, dinners out on the deck, and naps under the shade of the gazebo. The first glimpse of spring always reminds me how grateful I am for the little things and especially this cozy little house of mine.
