Bacon Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms

I don't have a picture of these tasty little morsels, but as soon as I make them again I'll definitely post a picture. They were so easy to make, and most of all, they were delicious! I made them for my Husband while he was watching the game and I thought he was going to eat the whole plate full! They are a Tastefully Simple recipe that I found when trying to decide what to make with the products I still have from Fall/Winter. Search all of Tastefully Simple's recipes by going here.


Bacon Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms
1 pkg Warm the Oven! Savory Cheese Dip
8oz Cream Cheese (I used neufchatel)
1 1/2 tablespoons Bacon Bacon
~22 mushrooms, cleaned and stems removed (I used one large package)
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I didn't have any on hand, so I omitted)

Mix the cheese dip mix, cream cheese and Bacon Bacon together. Let chill for 2 hours.

Spoon about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese mixture into each mushroom. You're going to have leftover cream cheese mixture, so feel free to spoon a little extra in, or purchase some extra mushrooms and you'll have a large recipe. (I spooned a little extra into each mushroom). When stuffed, put mushrooms in a glass baking dish (I think this would work better than the cookie sheet I used!) and broil on low for about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

WW pts= 1pt per mushroom. If you use full fat cream cheese and cheddar cheese, your points values will likely increase.
