Two Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms – Low Carb, THM S

Tender mushrooms stuffed with shredded zucchini, bacon, and two kinds of cheese make the perfect side dish or appetizer. Since these cheese stuffed mushrooms only take about five minutes to prepare they can be a staple in your meal plan.

We love stuffed mushrooms in my house and when it was 5 pm the other day with no real plans for dinner I decided they would be a good accompaniment to the leftover Cauliflower Soup we would be having. These Two Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms were amazing. I decided to use shredded zucchini as the filler in the stuffing to keep them light and get another veggie in.

These only take 5 minutes to prep making them perfect for a weeknight side. In addition to the zucchini, the filling has bacon, mozzarella, and provolone. Feel free to change up the cheeses. I had a pre-shredded bag of Two Cheese Pizza Blend and I knew it would be tasty in these mushrooms.

My husband works late occasionally. On those nights so I try to keep dinner easy. It’s hard enough getting the kids home from school and through their homework. I can’t make fancy dinners on top of the rest of my mommy duties. Sometimes we even just pop in frozen pizzas and eat in front of a movie. My kids love when we have a “movie night” and eat dinner on a picnic blanket in front of the tv.
