Football season is here so I am sharing one of my favorite Cajun themed tailgating recipes today. 
 I make this appetizer when we cheer on our New Orleans Saints on game day. 
These jumbo stuffed mushrooms are tender and meaty and filled to the brim with Cajun seasoned red beans and Andouille sausage then topped with melted cheese. These mushrooms sure are winners, Let’s hope our team is too!

Cajun Red Beans and Andouille Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms

Ingredients

  • 6 oz andouille sausage diced
  • 1/2 large yellow onion diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic minced
  • 6 large/jumbo mushrooms stems removed
  • 1/2 jalapeno diced
  • 3 cups red beans cooked
  • 1 cup white cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • salt and white pepper to taste
  • olive oil for saute
  • 1/4 cup green onions diced for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Add a swirl of olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add diced sausage and cook until crispy. Remove to a papertowel lined plate. Do not drain skillet.
  • Add onion and cook until softened. Add more oil if needed.
  • Next, add garlic, jalapeno, and add the cooked sausage back to the skillet.
  • Add salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  • Add 1 cup of cooked, drained red beans to the onion mixture and stir.
  • Place mushrooms in a baking dish, opening side up.
  • Scoop beans into each mushrooms center, filling and mounding on top.
  • Pour broth or water in the pan. You need enough to cover the bottom.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • Remove foil and add a sprinkling of cheese on top of each mushroom.
  • Bake uncovered for 15 more minutes.
  • Place on a platter and serve right away.
  • Garnish with diced green onions if desired.
 
I love big stuffing mushrooms. 
They are hearty enough to make a filling entree 
and perfect size to be filled with the beans and sausage! 
 I love the favor of Cajun Andouille sausage and here in Louisiana they use it in everything especially beans and gumbo! I dice up a couple links for this recipe.
 
Cook in a skillet until crispy then drain on paper towels. 
Add diced onion to the pan and cook until softened.
Add the cooked sausage back to the skillet. 
Then add minced garlic and diced jalapeno. 
Add salt and pepper and stir to combine.
 I cook a big ol’ pot of red beans according to the package.
{I use broth, cooked onion and pepper, and Cajun seasonings and simmer for a couple hours}.
You can also cook these in the Crock-Pot.
 Scoop out 1 cup of drained beans. 
Add the beans to the skillet with the onion mixture. 
Mix well.
 Place mushrooms in a baking dish. 
Now time to fill em’ up!
Scoop beans into each mushrooms center, filling and mounding on top.
Pour broth or water in the pan. You need enough to cover the bottom.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.  
 Remove foil and add a sprinkling of cheese on top of each mushroom.
Bake uncovered for 15 more minutes. 
Is your mouth watering yet?
Place on a platter and serve right away.
 Garnish with diced green onions if desired. 
I use my leftover red beans in the pot to make Red Beans and Rice with sausage and onions. 
Two meals in one!

Final Florida lunch with my Dad at a local hotspot: @stewbyseafoodshanty on Okaloosa Island. They have multiple locations but this one is by far my favorite. New, clean, beautiful scenery, and lots of space inside and outside.
🐟🐠🎣
I could eat here every day. Their seafood is the BEST. For lunch we tried their grilled grouper sandwich and seafood combo plate with amberjack, grilled shrimp, fried oysters, and all the sides and sauces to go with it (check out those scrumptious cheese grits)! 
🐟🐠🎣
Next door they have a seafood market, gift shop, and new steamer restaurant with steam buckets of shrimp, crab, and flounder with all the fixins. ⬅️ I know what I am ordering next time! Their motto: local fish at local prices. Check them out and thank me later.

🦀 Check out our lunch yesterday at my parents favorite local spot, @soiasianbistro . We tried a variety of items off of their massive updated menu.
🍣 The sushi was by far the best thing we ordered. Another must try is the Shiso Mono appetizer, which is tempura fried Japanese basil leaves stuffed with spiced tuna. 
🍤 We also ordered cucumber salad, pork ramen, udon noodles, and chicken katsu curry. All were tasty and big enough to share with the sushi appetizer. 
🍜 I recommend checking out Soi Bistro if you are in town and enjoy fresh seafood and Asian dishes like we do. But save it for a date night or special occasion b/c their price point was pretty high for a casual meal. ❤
