Notes
- Your leftovers will last up to 5 days in an airtight container in the fridge. You can reheat them with a quick zap in the microwave, or in the oven at 400F for 4-10 minutes or until heated through. Just like a regular slice of pizza, these stuffed mushrooms taste awesome cold as well!
- These mushrooms won't freeze well. The texture mushrooms get after being frozen and thawed is not particularly appetizing.
