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!

My last recipe for you before I fly (almost) across the country to Cleveland to spend time with C’s family! I just realized that I’ve been working backwards with my Thanksgiving recipes.  I went from a dessert recipe to a main dish to a side and now to this, an appetizer. Totally unintentional. I’m ending with a good one though with these paleo stuffed mushrooms. Can’t really go wrong with a recipe that has prosciutto in it, am I righhh?

This is another easy and quick recipe that’s 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 a finger food.

For those who are dairy intolerant, soaked cashews make a delicious cheese substitute. They are mild enough to flavor easily and become soft so they blend into a creamy texture.

You can eat these 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.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving wherever you are and whoever you are with!
