There are a few variants but all have 3 basic ingredients: mushrooms, bread and broth (this varies in type)
I add as wanted or available depending on use:
chicken sausage (for DH) carrots various herbs and spices
I always start with some broth in a skillet, add any onions, fresh garlic, etc... then any vegetables that take longer to cook... then a few minutes later once thats simmering I add the mushrooms. simmer until they are cooked down, adding any additional flavorings... then slowly add in some bread crumbles to absorb some of the liquid... once its a nice thick consistancy and everything is cooked either slide into the oven to bake, spoon over portabellas to bake or put in muffin tins!

Yum! This is a great basic recipe for mushroom stuffing. Do you have any particular herbs or spices you prefer using?
Thanks for sharing this!

Yummy!!! Thanks for sharing, khyricat! Do you have any herb/spice preferences? Just curious.
I must confess, I could eat the whole stuffing recipe for dinner, that is how much I love the way I suspect it will smell and taste!
Ultra-IBS friendly and hypoglycemia friendly, too!
Yes, I could eat this most days.
Broccomoli "icing" or spinach puree or asparagus-moli would really rock with this. Green beans, too.

I ate this for dinner. I used "herb de provence" (I love lavendar with mushies) and garnished it with "fine herbs." Positively divine. I accompanied it with spinach. Outstanding. A few red or purple potatoes (whipped with garlic/chives and chevril?) and that with be the "meringue" of the night, but alas I have no room--maybe later.
Thanks. I skipped the carrot, though. I really just don't like them and they give me explosive gas for some strange reason. Weird, I know.
Thanks a bunch, Aimee. I like your recipe as it is so FLEXIBLE. They were so moist and tender and juicy/flavourful. Wow.

I use all kinds of things.. sometimes just garlic and salt and pepper, sometimes sage or rosemary... and sometimes even a bit of lemon juice.. all depends on what I'm serving it with.. and yes- I can eat just stuffing for a meal easily!

Muchas gracias and one more quick question:
DO YOU FOOD PROCESS THE STUFFING/mushrooms??? (I like stem flavour, personally, but I know most people don't.) Are they just coarsely chopped? Finely sliced?
I think I will be enjoying a lot of mushroom stuffing variations for dinner.
And thanks for reassuring me that I'm not the only one. Rosemary, sage...smells good already!

I foodprocess some of the extras but I tend to just slice and dice the mushrooms so they have some texture... sausage is always food processed... be it vegetarian or chicken based..
