These simple stuffed mushrooms with mince beef are cheesy, simple and delicious.
The meatiness is joined by garlic, a little tomato, balsamic and parsley. Oh yeah cheese, we have both mozzarella and Parmesan.

Minced Beef Stuffed Mushrooms.
Stuffed shrooms are no stranger here on my site… We are not talking about little appetizers, but full-on meal centrepieces, we love them!
These beef stuffed mushrooms are the first meaty shrooms I have here.
I usually make them vegetarian, not for any reason other than the fact that mushrooms are already quite meaty.
So the addition of minced beef and bacon make these super meaty!
The stuffing is really very simple are the main ingredients of many a great meat sauce for pasta.
The meatiness is joined by garlic, a little tomato, balsamic and parsley. Oh yeah cheese, we have both mozzarella and Parmesan.
Is this ringing a bell yet?
It is delicious and you could even use it to stuff my bacon-wrapped stuffed onions.

Other Stuffed Shroom Recipes.
Seeing as I have mentioned my penchant for vegetarian stuffed shrooms it would be remiss of me not to share.
Here you go:
- Cheddar Cheese and Brown Rice Grilled Shrooms.
- Easy Stuffed Shrooms With Roasted Red Pepper.
- Caramelised Onion and Goats Cheese Stuffed Portobello Shrooms.
And a quick appetizer stuffed mushroom to round things out!

What Are The Best Mushrooms to Use?
The best mushrooms for stuffing are either portobello mushrooms or field mushrooms.
They are practically the same thing to be honest. Portobello mushrooms are a mature version of the cultivated button mushrooms we all know.
Field mushrooms, also known as meadow mushrooms are the often wild cousin of the portobello mushroom.
Field mushrooms are often a little irregular in shape and do not have the same bowl shape. As a result, sometimes they are a little more awkward to stuff.
Both bake/roast or BBQ wonderfully, so whether you are cooking these beefy mushrooms or any of my vegetarian variants they are perfect.

Hi Brian : love to try this recipe soon, a little befuddled on what you call mince beef? Is that roast beef already cooked that you shredded? or perhaps ground beef, like one would use for meatloaf. Also want to know what is "hack" for fish dish? is it a firm white fish? As I am from Ontario Canada and a small community at that availability to a wider range of foods is slim at best but I have enjoyed making quite a few of your recipes. The lamb shanks top the list. Thankyou ahead. Keep cooking.
cheers

Hi Linda... Yes, minced beef in the UK is called Ground beef in the US and Canada I believe.
Re the fish, do you mean my latest recipe for Hake? If so I had to do some digging as I had no idea it was called something else. Apparently, Silver hake is also known as Whiting, hopefully, that helps.
Glad you are enjoying my recipes, I love both of my lamb shank recipes, they are among my favourite ways to treat myself and if spice is your thing I am working on a lamb shank curry at the moment :)

I think my husband that isn't a mushroom crazy person like me might be converted by this one. Yum! Pinning it.

It is suitably meaty, so maybe he will be converted :)

We love mushrooms so I am not sure why I don't stuff them more often! You have given me the push I need! I'm heading out to buy some portobellas!
