PALEO Stuffed Mushrooms

These could work as an appetizer, but I ate them as a meal with some grilled zucchini (and then saved the extra ones for snacks!). These are super yummy, and soothe any salty craving you may have :)

You will need:
Approx 16 medium-small mushrooms
1 cup of fresh or frozen shrimp
1/4 cup of cilantro
2 cooked bacon slices, sliced and diced
1 tsp of hot sauce (optional)
1 1/2 tsp of fish sauce
salt and pepper



Prep:
1. Preheat the oven to 450F
2. Clean, and de-stem your mushrooms. Place the mushrooms on a aluminum-foil lined baking sheet, and in the oven for 12 mins.
3. Remove from oven, and flip them. Roast for another 6-10 mins, or until all liquid has evaporated.

4. While the mushrooms are in the oven, remove tails from shrimp and place them in the food processor, along with your cilantro, bacon, hot and fish sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Blend these ingredients until a chunky, coarse paste develops.

5. When paste is done, scoop out small portions with a spoon and fill each cooked mushroom with shrimp paste.
6. Return the stuffed mushrooms into the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the shrimp is lightly browned. Then remove from oven and enjoy!
