Sun-Dried Tomato Stuffed Mushrooms
Seafood stuffed mushrooms, like crab or salmon, are a luxurious treat and always a crowd pleaser. However, those meats can be expensive. So in this Sun-Dried Tomato Stuffed Mushrooms recipe, I chose an inexpensive can of tuna.
The end result is a sweet, savory, satiating appetizer!
Ingredients for Sun-Dried Tomato Stuffed Mushrooms with tuna
Let’s get started. Gather these ingredients for these stuffed mushrooms:
- Can of tuna
- Mayonnaise
- Dijon mustard
- Lemon
- Parmesan cheese
- Sun-dried tomatoes
- Crimini mushrooms
- Salt and pepper
- Olive oil
- Fresh basil
How do you make stuffed mushrooms?
- In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the sun-dried tomatoes with any excess oil, and minced mushroom stems. Add more olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened and fragrant and then remove from heat and set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the tuna, mayonnaise, Parmesan (leave some out for the topping) Dijon, lemon zest, and sun-dried tomato mixture. Mix together.
- Brush the mushroom caps with olive oil all over and arrange on a parchment-lined tray. Fill all caps with the tuna and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan, making sure the large caps are near the edges of the tray, and the smaller in the center, to encourage more even cooking.
- Bake until browned on top.
