Cheesy Veal Stuffed Mushrooms

You are in for a treat with these double cheesy veal stuffed mushrooms. The mushrooms are full of flavor with smooth cream cheese blended with bold seasonings from the steak seasoning and soy sauce.

This recipe makes about 18 stuffed mushrooms, but can be easily doubled for an even bigger group! Use the mushrooms and steak seasoning that you prefer, but don’t forget to load up on the cheese. These Cheesy Veal Stuffed Mushrooms were developed by Eileen from Everyday Eileen.
A quick cooking hint from Eileen: Mushrooms release a lot of water as they cook, once the mushrooms begin to have a bit of pooling of water on the baking tray, they are cooked through.
