Grab a copy of my new cookbook, Korean Paleo: 80 Bold-Flavored, Gluten- and Grain-Free Recipes!

These dairy free and Paleo Stuffed Mushrooms are filled with prosciutto and cashew cheese, and they are a delicious and easy Whole30 and Keto finger food!

Finger foods are always so popular on holidays and they are necessary, in my opinion. People come to dinner gatherings HUNGRY and if you don’t have enough appetizers to feed them as soon as they get there, you’ve got some grouchy guests on hand. I’ve made these paleo stuffed mushrooms many time for my family, and they always disappear in no time!

Prosciutto “Cheese” Paleo Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe

I love this paleo stuffed mushrooms recipe because they are really easy to make, and are always a crowd favorite. You can use any kind of mushrooms that you can stem and fill. I like to use regular white or cremini mushrooms because they are bite sized and perfect for grabbing quickly.

Perfect for Dairy Free Folks

For those who are dairy intolerant, soaked cashews make a delicious creamy cheese substitute. They are mild enough to flavor easily and become soft so they blend into a smooth and thick texture. My dad, who loves cheese, told me one time that these were his favorite holiday appetizers which was the best compliment ever.

If you can eat cheese, you can substitute the blended cashews any kind of creamy cheese you’d like, like goat cheese or cream cheese.

You can eat these prosciutto “cheese” paleo stuffed mushrooms hot right of the oven or at room temperature, so feel free to make this ahead of time in the morning if you need the oven space throughout the day for other dishes. They are still so tasty after sitting out for a few hours!
