These Loaded Baked Potato Stuffed Mushrooms are a really fun twist on traditional loaded baked potatoes…..how about a bite-size version stuffed into a baby portabello mushroom?!  If you love everything about a loaded baked potato, then you must try this appetizer version that’s fun to eat and serve.  You get all that cheesy, flavorful potato goodness in a small, tasty package.  It’s also a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes!

Loaded Baked Potato Stuffed Mushrooms #SundaySupper

Prep Time

10 mins

Cook Time

40 mins

Total Time

50 mins

 

Servings: 18 mushrooms

Ingredients

• 16 oz whole baby portobello mushrooms
• 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded from block
• 1 cup prepared mashed potatoes made from Idaho® russet potatoes
• 1/2 stick butter melted
• 2 tbsp fresh chives finely chopped
• 4 pieces bacon cooked and crumbled
• 2 tbsp sour cream

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. Remove stems from baby bellas and gently carve out the center with a small spoon
3. In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, cheese, chives, sour cream and bacon
4. Stir to combine
5. Spoon filling generously into each mushroom (I use a small scooper) and place mushrooms into a shallow baking dish
6. Drizzle mushrooms with butter and bake for 30-40 minutes, until lightly golden on top
7. Serve immediately

I’m not sure about you, but I could eat this filling right out of the bowl!

These flavors go together so beautifully….

Recipe Hack…

No time to peel, boil and mash potatoes?  No worries!  Just scrub a couple of Idaho® russet potatoes under running water, pat dry and prick a few times with a fork.  Place on a microwave-safe plate and cook for 5 minutes.  Flip potatoes over and cook 5-6 minutes more, until potato pierces easily with a fork.  Scoop flesh from baked potato and add just enough milk or cream to get a mashed potato consistency (it won’t take much).  Measure out 1 cup mashed potatoes for your recipe.  For more delicious potato inspiration, be sure and follow Idaho® Potatoes on Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
