A simple 3 ingredient tapa, Manchego and roasted pepper stuffed mushrooms.
These are seriously the easiest bite you can make..because it's just 3 ingredients!! 3 awesome ingredients that is! For a great appetizer that is going to impress your guests, try my Steak crostini.
All I did was stuff mushrooms with shredded manchego cheese and topped with roasted red pepper. Both mushrooms and manchego were HUGE while we were in Spain and the mushrooms that we saw at the markets were just amazing. All different kinds, rustic and earthy. I had no idea how vast and necessary mushrooms were in Spain.

A simple 3 ingredient tapa, Manchego and roasted pepper stuffed mushrooms.
Ingredients
- 1 pound mushrooms cleaned and stems removed
- 1 roasted bell pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 cup Manchego cheese shredded
- Spanish olive oil for drizzling
- Fresh parsley chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by cleaning your mushrooms Remove the stem and use a damp towel to clean off any dirt. You never want to rinse mushrooms because they can toughen.
- Toss mushrooms with olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake mushrooms in 375 degree F oven for 20 minutes until they begin to soften.
- When mushrooms are done, there should be water that has settled in the mushroom cap. When mushrooms are cool enough to handle, drain out the liquid.
- Stuff mushrooms with shredded cheese and top with a slice of roasted pepper. Drizzle with additional Spanish olive oil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
- Garnish with fresh parsley.

I'm always on the lookout for good mushroom appetizer recipes. And Manchego cheese is a favorite of mine! It's so wine friendly. I'd probably go with a nice Tempranillo with this!
Cheers
