Baby bella mushroom caps and blue Cheese taste great together and are kicked up a notch when combined with a creamy blue cheese stuffing topped with quail eggs. My husband loves stuffed mushrooms and I rarely make the same recipe twice and I am known for using what ever ingredients I have on hand to make a tasty treat. I do keep a lot of basics in the pantry and refrigerator. You will almost always find garlic, onions, cream cheese, sour cream and butter on hand. If you are using fresh ground pepper you don’t need to use as much because it is more flavorful than the pre-ground pepper.
