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?! *This post is sponsored by the Idaho Potato Commission in conjunction with a social media campaign through Sunday Supper LLC.

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!
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.
