Ingredients

Instructions

  • Using a damp pepper towel, wipe each mushroom thoroughly. Then remove the stems using a small spoon
  • Chop the stems into fine pieces and set them aside.
  • In a frying pan cook the chopped bacon over medium heat, then drop the temperature to medium-low and add the minced garlic and stir for about a minute. Be careful not to let the garlic burn.
  • Add the finely chopped mushroom stems to the pan and cook until they soften.
  • Bring the temperature back to medium-high and stir in the ground beef and keep mixing until it's fully cooked.
  • Lastly, add the cream cheese, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir for another minute to ensure all the flavors combine together.
  • Generously stuff each mushroom with the beef filling then transfer the stuffed mushrooms onto a baking sheet lined with foil. Then lightly brush the outside of the mushrooms with a little bit of olive oil. Lastly, sprinkle the shredded fontina on top.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Clean the mushrooms- These veggies can get really dirty so make sure you rinse and wipe them clean before dicing and stuffing them.
  • Get the bacon crispy- These taste best when you can taste the crispy pieces of bacon, so saute them until they are crispy little nuggets of deliciousness.
  • Stuff them well- Gently pack in the stuffing so that these Keto Stuffed Mushrooms are generously filled and will have an attractive hill of melted cheese when you serve them.
  • Brush the mushrooms with olive oil- This step helps the outsides of the mushroom caps to cook quickly and get a light crispness.
