Enchilada Stuffed Mushrooms | So Addictive!

Enchilada Stuffed Mushrooms…You guys. I have a confession. I have a problem. I’m addicted to the ‘shrooms.

No, not the street drug kind…..

{oh you guys!}

The 14.2 pound carton of baby portobello mushrooms you get from Costco. I LOVE mushrooms….and Costco. I clearly cannot be trusted in that store. {Please recall this huge jar of pesto. YEAH.} Why does one need 14.2 pounds of mushrooms? Because they were dirt cheap. That’s why. You guys, I have become a mushroom stuffing FOOL! I just can’t get enough of these little guys! 

My obsession started with these Blue Cheese Filled Bacon Wrapped Mushrooms that I made on a whim. The obsession grew with my Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms and now it has morphed into a full on problem because now I have created a monster: Enchilada Stuffed Mushrooms.

Amazing bubbly, cheesy and creamy stuffed mushrooms that magically taste like straight up enchiladas. You don’t know it right now but you absolutely positively need these in your life. I didn’t realize this until I took my first bite of this experiment and just about fainted. Fainted from pure bliss and joy. Ooey gooey, spicy and delicious enchilada mushrooms. And the funny part is they take like 10 minutes or less to make. Honest to goodness low carb enchilada heaven in 30 minutes!

Don’t believe me? Take a peek.

Main Ingredients Needed

You only need 8 simple ingredients to make these delicious Enchilada Stuffed Mushrooms! Here’s everything you’ll need:

  • Baby Bella Mushrooms – these are great to use for stuffed mushrooms and you can find a ton of them at Costco!
  • Cream Cheese – tangy creamy goodness that creates the base of our filling.
  • Parmigiano Reggiano – this is like real parmesan people, so good!
  • Taco Seasoning – either use store-bought or use my homemade taco seasoning.
  • Greed Onion – I used the green and white parts for maximum oniony flavor.
  • Cheddar Cheese – this tops the filled mushrooms and is melted on top!
  • Salt + Pepper – and don’t forget to season!
  • Red Enchilada Sauce – buy some store-bought enchilada sauce or use my homemade red enchilada sauce 🙂

Variations

And if you wanted to change things up and make this recipe your own, I’m all for it! Here are a couple of ideas:

  • Chicken – you could totally add some shredded rotisserie chicken into the mixture to add some protein to this dish.
  • Enchilada Sauce – if you like green enchilada sauce better, go ahead and use it!
  • Toppings – I love to top these with all sorts of toppings, just like regular enchiladas (cilantro, avocado, tomatoes, sour cream, salsa, etc.)

How to Make Enchilada Stuffed Mushrooms

For full details on how to make Enchilada Stuffed Mushrooms, see the recipe card down below 🙂

Clean + Prep Mushrooms

Start out by cleaning a whole bunch of baby bellas off and popping out the stems.

Place these into a lightly greased baking dish and set aside.

Make Filling

Now for this ridiculous filling–start out by mixing some softened cream cheese just to get things working then add in some taco seasoning, parmesan cheese, sliced green onion, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper.

Stir it all up and voila! An amazingly cheesy and flavorful filling. I know it doesn’t look like much, but trust the Lauren.

Top with Enchilada Sauce + Cheese

Spoon the filling into those cute little mushroom caps and……are you ready for this?? smother the top with enchilada sauce and more cheese for good measure. I do it because I can.

Bake!

Bake these off and voila! Brown and bubbly enchilada stuffed mushrooms.

      I just made them with green enchilada sauce and they were amazing. I also used chipotle seasoning for taco seasoning. Made for lunch and quickly shared recipe with friends. Thank you!

  1. Marylou

    O my word! These look delicious!! And since I haven’t made stuffed mushrooms in a long time, I’m due for some! Thanks!

  2. Marcee .... ILLINOIS

    Wow …. what a great recipe for company …. anytime really. Filling too.

    I will try and prepare this weekend. Only need the mushrooms …. have everything else. My fridge is always stocked w/mexican cheeses! Love them.

    Enjoying your posts …. a real comic you are Lauren! Thanks for making us laugh out loud!!

  3. Michelle @ Brown Eyed Baker

    These look awesome! They make me realize I haven’t made enchiladas in eons. I must remedy that, and make these, as well!

    Lauren, I did make them. They all went and everyone asked me to make them again. I was just wishing they were mushrooms!!…

  5. PammyJay

    I love mushrooms, but my family doesn’t. I made this filling and put it in filo cups. I eliminated the enchilada sauce.( I thought they’d get soggy), We are having them tomorrow for a Mother’s Day appetizer….I’ll let you know how they turn out. Thanks, Lauren & Happy Mom’s Day to you!!

    My husband’s family was over yesterday so I decided to make these. They were SO good! Everyone loved them. Will definitely make them again. Thanks!

  7. Stephanie

    Wait…are you sure it wasn’t 14.2 ounces, not pounds? That would be a really really big box of mushrooms, they’re so light! (and for the record, I would TOTALLY buy a 14 lb box too). In either case, these look great!

  8. Katrina

    I’m so happy I found this recipe! We’re doing a “snack day” at work tomorrow that’s texmex theme for cinco de mayo, so I’m making these. I have everything prepped and in the fridge now. Tomorrow morning i’ll pour on the enchilada sauce, bake, then transfer to a crockpot to transport and keep warm. I’m excited about how good they look like they’ll taste! 🙂

  9. Julia

    I have that very same container of mushrooms from costco in my fridge right now. AND PESTO TOO! And the 4 lb bag of broccoli. I can not be trusted there, AT ALL! So glad to see such a creative and delicious new way to have stuffed mushrooms AND enchiladas!

  10. shelly (cookies and cups)

    I want these NOW! I pinned them and will definitely be making this week. I am trying to cut back on carbs just an eensy bit and these are perfection!

  11. Marjory

    Lauren you sure have a way with words, I absolutely love reading your blogs. This looks so good you “ouch” twisted my arm. This is on the menu for tomorrow. Thank you.

  12. Miss @ Miss in the Kitchen

  13. Julie @ Table for Two

    lauren, you are amazing. these are WONDERFUL and so creative on your end. wow, i’m seriously wanting to eat my screen right now..or actually, i want to run to costco tomorrow morning, wait outside for it to open, and buy a ton of shrooms…this looks and sounds soo good!!!

  14. Dinuka

    Ya know, you COULD potentially call these healthy by the sneaky shrooms peeking underneath that “OH MAMA” melty heavenly party in my mouth CHEDDAR (my fav)!

  15. anonymous

    Ohhhhh, man. I’ve GOT to try these. I am a mushroom hater (sorry- blame the canned cream of mushroom soup!) BUT these look like they would work miracles. And they did. I am officialy a “shroom” lover just by lookin at the screen. THANK YOU!! My mom and grandma are obsessed with mushrooms. BTW I’m 13. 😀

    Best. stuffed mushrooms. ever.

    Seriously. I cannot wait to make this. The boyfriend is moving back home in 2 weeks and I think I’ll surprise him with this. He might just propose once I make this.

  17. Shawn @ I Wash...You Dry

    Oh my heck! These look wonderful! Luckily my whole family is addicted to mushrooms as well. I need to get my self to Costco…sampling is never a bad thing…

  18. Mary

    These look wonderful! I will have to try this very soon! P.S. I did the same mushroom thing! Yesterday I made Cream of Baby Bella Mushroom Soup (LowFat). Will be posting it soon. Must try it and see if you like it too! Keep on with the mushrooms!

  19. Kathryn

    I love the new ways you think up to use Mexican-style flavours and ingredients. I’m only just starting to come to terms with mushrooms after a childhood of hatred but these look like they would be the perfect next step!

  20. Julia {The Roasted Root}

    Your husband is the luckiest man on the planet. What brilliant ideas you have, Lauren! Delicious, that’s all I can say. 🙂

  21. Amy L

    These look amazing! I tried your blue cheese filled bacon wrapped shrooms the other day with my own little twist. Everyone fell in love! They were a big hit with my family. Thanks! 🙂 can’t wait to try these, as I too am addicted to shrooms. Keep up your awesome cooking!

    I can just imagine these served on small spoons at a cocktail party. They would blow the guests’ socks off.

  25. Cheri

    I positively adore mushrooms and these have my name written all over them. I have never seen a 14.2 pound of baby bella mushrooms at my Costco and I am heartbroken over it. Hmmmmph

    Thank you for this genius idea, I cannot wait to try them!
