Sausage-Stuffed Mushrooms
Sausage-stuffed mushrooms are just something a little different from clam-based stuffing(s). You can change the basic recipe to suit your personal tastes. I usually cook and stir the mushrooms in butter before stuffing, but that's just my preference. The guys love these during football and dart nights.

There's no cooking involved with this recipe, the raw mushrooms marinate for three days.
