Best Stuffed Mushroom Eyeballs Recipes

SKEWERED EYEBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Place mushroom caps in an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings, reserving 2 teaspoons in pan., Add onion to drippings; cook and stir over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until tender. Add garlic, basil and thyme; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat; stir in bacon., Place about 1 teaspoon bacon mixture into each mushroom cap. Bake 7-9 minutes or until tender. Top each mushroom with a cheese ball; bake 3-4 minutes longer or until cheese is softened. Remove from oven; immediately press an olive slice on top of cheese. Insert a sword pick into each cheese ball. Serve warm.

STUFFED MUSHROOM EYEBALLS

Steps:

• Rinse or brush off the mushroom caps and pull all of the stems out of them. Set aside on a baking sheet.
• Puree the tofu, garlic, lemon juice, salt, Italian seasoning, onion powder and black pepper together in a food processor until completely smooth. Scoop the mixture into a piping bag or ziploc bag with a circle tip.
• Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Carefully, pour just a couple of drops of balsamic vinegar into each mushroom cap.
• Pipe the tofu ricotta mixture into each cap so that it creates a small mound. It will be a different amount depending on the size of your mushroom caps.
• Finely chiffonade cut the sun-dried tomato pieces and start placing them on stuffed mushrooms. You can make them more vein-like by scrunching them a bit. Top with one slice of olive and press it down gently.
• Bake the mushrooms for 10 to 15 mins. or until the caps begin to wrinkly slightly. You can serve these warm (which I prefer), or room temperature.

STUFFED MUSHROOM EYEBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. The gently pop the stems off the mushrooms and set them bottom-side-up on the baking sheet.
• In a small bowl mix the softened cream cheese, shredded white cheddar cheese, and garlic powder. Scoop small 1-2 teaspoon portions of the cheese mixture and roll it into balls. Press the balls into the cavities of the mushrooms. 1 teaspoon balls for small mushrooms, and 2 teaspoon balls for larger mushrooms. *Resist the urge to overstuff the mushrooms, or the filling will run out!
• Cut the pimento stuffed olives in half and press them flat-side-up into the top of the cheese filling. Bake the mushrooms for 12-15 minutes. Serve warm!

EDIBLE EYEBALLS

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the gelatin and stir to dissolve completely. Pour the mixture into ice cube trays with rounded bottoms (you should be able to fill 2 trays). Refrigerate until partially set, about 20 minutes. Push the blueberry eyeballs into the partially set gelatin and refrigerate until thoroughly set. Dip the ice cube tray in warm water for 15 to 30 seconds and run a knife around the edges of each ice cube. Turn the "eyes" out on a serving plate and refrigerate until serving time.
