Guacamole Stuffed Mushrooms

Cookinero 24 March 2025

Guacamole sauce is a traditional Mexican sauce made from avocado with tomatoes, herbs and spices. Guacamole can be either a pureed sauce or a small-diced "salad". In this recipe, processed cheese is added to the guacamole. The resulting filling is stuffed into baked mushroom caps. The mushroom stems can be finely chopped, fried and added to the filling. The snack is light and piquant.

Guacamole Stuffed Mushrooms - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute processed cheese with feta, queso fresco, or cream cheese for a different flavor and texture.
They can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days, but the avocado may darken slightly.
Absolutely! Replace the processed cheese with vegan cheese or omit it entirely, and ensure all other ingredients are plant-based.
Adding a bit of lime or lemon juice to the guacamole can help slow oxidation and keep it fresh-looking longer.
Freezing isn’t recommended, as the texture of the mushrooms and guacamole may become mushy when thawed.
Try diced red onion, thinly sliced jalapeños, or a drizzle of hot sauce for extra flavor and color.
Yes, portobello mushrooms work well, but adjust baking time as they are larger and may need more time to soften.
Add finely chopped jalapeños, a dash of cayenne pepper, or hot sauce to the guacamole mixture.
Pair them with a light salad, grilled vegetables, or tortilla chips for a complete appetizer spread.
