Sausage and Pepper Jack Stuffed Mushrooms

Sausage and Pepper Jack Stuffed Mushrooms

Stuffed mushrooms are always one of my go-to and favorite appetizers to make and bring to parties but also to eat when attending parties. They are bite size, delicious and so easy to make.

In this recipe, the hot Italian sausage and the pepper jack cheese give it a bit of a kick. If you are sensitive to spice, you could try a mild Italian sausage or a turkey sausage and whatever cheese you prefer.
