Thanksgiving is all about the sides. I don’t really care about the turkey, I’m just here for the sides, appetizers, and desserts. This year I’m celebrating Thanksgiving in California with my in-laws and I can hardly wait.

I begin my day with a cup of tea, and then I don’t eat anything until it’s time to feast. I know! Then I proceed to make a bunch of sides. This year I’m in charge of making my Masala Mac and Cheese, Chatpate Rosemary Roasted Potatoes, and Cornbread.

Let’s talk about these stuffed mushrooms. I made a cream cheese filling including Taco Bell sauce, Mexican spices, and a few veggies. The end results is creamy, mouthwatering, and delicious. Even my mushroom hating hubby loved these. He literally doesn’t eat anything with mushrooms, but he ate these stuffed mushrooms and LOVED them. I hope you’ll make this as a Thanksgiving appetizer.

how to make Mexican stuffed mushrooms recipe step by step?

Prepare the Filling

1. Begin by cleaning the mushrooms using a damp paper towel. Remove the stem of the mushroom and set aside. Finely chop the mushroom stems along with the garlic, and serrano chili.

2. Heat a castiron skillet on medium heat, once hot, add avocado oil followed by the chopped garlic. Cook for 30 seconds or so.
3. Add the serrano chili and mushroom stems. Season with very little salt. Saute for 5 minutes.
4. Stirring occasionally. Once done, turn off the stove. Let the mushroom garlic mixture cool.

5. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, cheese, taco seasoning, cilantro, scallions, black pepper, and the cooled mushroom garlic mix. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
6. Add Taco Bell sauce, or you can also use Trader Joe’s Spicy Taco Sauce. Any taco sauce will do. Mix well.
7. Mix well. This is what you should have.

Stuff the Mushrooms

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
2. Stuff the mushroom cavity with the creamy mixture.
3. Take a mini scoop of the creamy mixture.
4. Top over the mushroom and press gently.

5. Place the mushrooms in a castiron skillet.
6. Top with a little more cheddar cheese and plain breadcrumbs. Place into the oven for 20 minutes until bubbly.

"Just when you think you know love, someone little "Just when you think you know love, someone little comes along to remind you just how big it really is." - Unknown⁠
⁠
How can I love someone this tiny so much? He tests my patience every day, but also brings me so much joy! ⁠
⁠
For all you moms who said, “I have no time”, I finally get it. Now, I can’t even spare 5 minutes to shower. Yes, Nisha - Welcome to the Club! I can’t tell you how many people sent me this EXACT message 😂.⁠
⁠
Before I became a mom, the idea of changing diapers and spit-up grossed me out. Now, no biggie. I can’t even count on one hand how many times I’ve put my baby to sleep and I get so excited to have some “me time”. To my disappointment, he wakes up 1/2 hour later and I have to start the process all over again… is he burped, is he wet, is he hungry? The days are long!
⁠
Despite the hardships of motherhood, one of the greatest joys has been watching and holding my baby while he sleeps, and knowing I provide comfort to him like no other. I’m sure he will get used to it and I’ll probably regret it later on, but for now, I am just soaking up these precious moments while he’s still little and innocent. ☺️⁠
