It is time for another #MonthlyIngredientChallenge!!!
I’m always excited for these monthly challenges because they force me to think outside my usual bubble! If you’re new, each month one blogger chooses an ingredient, and everyone makes a recipe highlighting that ingredient. This month’s winner? Cream cheese!! Ok… so not that far out of my usual bubble. I used cream cheese to make some delicious Spinach and Artichoke Stuffed Mushrooms.
If you like stuffed mushrooms, you will love these! My husband and I ate them a few nights in a row (after testing the “not as good” ones, lol). Now I’ll be using them all the time as one of my go-to quick and easy appetizers!
The recipe (written out below) is SUPER easy to follow. All you do is mix up all of the ingredients, remove the stems from the mushrooms, add the mixture, sprinkle on some paprika (for flavour and colour!), and bake for 15-20 minutes.
I hope you enjoy this quick and easy recipe!!

Ooh these look good! Cream cheese isn't new to me but artichoke is so maybe this will be the recipe to introduce me to this new ingredient.

In college, there were two local restaurants that constantly vied for the title of "best spinach dip", we could never decide since the two were different, but spinach dip always makes us smile. Great recipe!
