Bacon Habanero Stuffed Mushrooms with Cream Cheese Ranch Dressing and Parmesan Cheese
If you like any of the above ingredients you will LOVE these stuffed bacon habanero mushrooms and all the cheesy, tangy ranch, bacony goodness that comes with them! Officially, I don't like Mushrooms. At least, that is what I used to think. Now I think Mushrooms should be a major food group. We have found so many amazing ways to make mushrooms. I can't wait for summer for the grilled Portobello Mushrooms with stuffing like Blue Cheese, Swiss Cheese, Pizza stuffed grilled mushroom, or my favorite, Grilled Steak lovers mushroom. We had so much fun last night making this recipe. It was a HIT!!! Everyone loved these mushrooms. Until summer gets here, I highly recommend this recipe, even if you don't love mushrooms.
Spicy Bacon Habanero Stuffed Mushrooms
Ok, it is official- habaneros are so amazing. Yes, they are super hot and spicy, but the flavor of a Habanero is amazing. Now I don't believe the habanero peppers we are getting at our local grocery store are as hot as what we will grow in our Garden. But they still have a nice kick. The combination of cream cheese, black pepper, and Habaneros with the mushrooms is delicious. Oh, and I can't forget the addition of the Hidden Valley Ranch Dips mix! This was so good. I almost want to drive to the grocery store to make this recipe again tonight. Except going to the store isn't a simple trip with the (check out this post) dogs! Even as good as this recipe is, a trip to the grocery store is too much work.
Another use for the Spicy Bacon Habanero Cream Cheese mixture
OK, this is just a good mixture. The bacon flavor pops and then you get the spice from the Habanero. Oh, and cream cheese is just delicious. This cream cheese filling will be so yummy on a bagel. The next time we have bagels we're going to make this cream cheese mixture. I have to mention it again... The bacon flavor pops! I love a Bagel with cream cheese and a couple of pieces of bacon. With this mixture, the bacon flavor is so amazing and will actually cut some calories when added to a bagel (you don't need as much bacon to get all the flavor). And yes this is a breakfast with a zip!!! Ok, I'm going to Panera's tomorrow. I hope they have bagels!!!!
