How to easily make Crumbed Mushrooms at home with a creamy Blue Cheese dipping Sauce (not a fan of Blue Cheese – use your favorite sauce!)
One of our favorite appetizers at our one local restaurant is crumbed mushrooms. I decided to make some myself and these Crumbed Mushrooms with Blue Cheese Sauce were born.
As an appetizer, these are not too rich to spoil your appetite for the main meal.
And if you serve them as a snack, either alone with the Blue Cheese Sauce or on a savory platter with different sauces, they will be gobbled up in no time at all.
Deep-fried to perfection ! The outside is crispy and the Mushroom on the inside, tender and just cooked. Each bite also results in a juicy business – scrumptious ..
I love Blue Cheese, so for me, my first choice is usually a Blue Cheese dipping sauce. Made differently each time, depending on the dish it will be used with.
You can of course use your own favorite dipping sauce if Blue Cheese is not really your thing. Tartare Sauce is also great to serve with these Crumbed Mushrooms.
However, if you do decide to use this Blue Cheese Sauce, it is a thinnish dipping sauce, but goes excellent with not only the Mushrooms, but also with potato chips and raw veggies.

I know so many people who would love this wonderful appetizer, Linda. I would love the mushrooms but the blue cheese sauce sadly not so much. My husband on the other hand would be very happy to eat my share of the sauce! I think your wonderful dish may well feature at our next dinner party :-) Thank you for sharing with us at the Hearth and Soul hop.

I'm a mushroom lover. My family is so-so on them. This only means I'd get to eat them all!

These look amazing. I'd have to make a triple batch or my family would be fighting over them. Thanks for sharing at the This Is How We Roll Link Party on Organized 31.
