Leftover cornmeal polenta is a perfect filler. #stuffedmushrooms #partyappetizer #polentaTo make Garlic Rosemary Polenta Stuffed Mushrooms, you can use any leftover polenta that you have or make our Vegan Garlic Rosemary Polenta.  You only need 1 cup total of polenta for 18 mushrooms, so it is perfect to use leftovers or from a small batch.  If using a different polenta recipe, it may not be vegan or gluten free.  First wipe clean your mushrooms and remove the stems.  No need to remove the “gills.”  Then scoop around 1 Tablespoon of the polenta into the hole of each mushroom cap.  The exact amount you need will vary slightly based on the size of the mushroom.  You want the polenta to be just mounding out of the mushroom.

Next, get your mushrooms lined up on a baking sheet or in a pan.  Drizzle with olive oil if desired, but not necessary.  Bake for approximately 10-15 minutes or until the mushrooms are just tender.  If you prefer very soft mushrooms, cook longer however they will be more difficult to pick up as they are more prone to falling apart.

    I recently discovered both polenta and stuffed mushrooms, but it definitely never occurred to me to combine them!! This sounds like the best kind of holiday appetizer! Can’t wait to try 🙂
