Bacon Mushroom Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F, line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and line a third baking sheet or pan with paper towels. Brush each parchment-lined baking sheet with about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Place the mushroom slices in a single layer, very close together, on the parchment and brush lightly with the remaining vegetable oil.
• Bake the mushrooms until slightly softened and brown, 25 to 30 minutes, then flip the mushrooms over, rotate the pans in the oven and bake until the mushrooms are well-browned and the edges are crispy, another 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to the paper-towel lined baking sheet to dry for a few minutes. (Leave the oven on.)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the molasses, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder and paprika. Carefully toss the baked mushrooms in the marinade until evenly coated. Place half the marinated mushroom strips in a single layer (it's ok of they overlap) into a large metal steamer basket or colander that fits snugly into a large, heavy metal pot.
• Prepare a stovetop smoker: Line the bottom of a large, heavy metal pot with foil. Place two large handfuls of applewood chips in the bottom of the pot. Place the pot over medium heat and use a lighter to light a few of the wood chips. Once the chips are smoking, place the mushroom-filled steamer basket or colander inside the pot, then place a tight-fitting lid on top. Allow the mushrooms to smoke for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how strong of a smoky flavor you want. Repeat with the second batch.
• After the mushrooms are smoked, return them to the baking sheets in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and a few grinds of pepper and return to the oven until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat in a low oven before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• 2. Cook bacon in a skillet until brown and just crispy, drain on paper towels. In the same pan as drippings, sautee the mushrooms until soft.
• 3. Cook pasta according to package directions, drain.
• 4. In a medium sauce pan, combine soup, milk, cheeses, bacon and mushrooms. Stir until warmed through and cheese is melted. Add pasta.
• 5. Pour into casserole dish and bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Set oven to 325 degrees.
• Butter a casserole dish.
• Cook the rice, and set aside.
• In a frypan cook bacon until crisp; drain the bacon fat if desired, or just leave in frypan to fry the veggies (you might still have to add in some butter for frying) remove and chop bacon into large pieces and set aside.
• Add in 1/4 cup butter, and saute onion, garlic, celery and green pepper for about 4-5 minutes or until soft.
• Transfer the cooked bacon and sauteed veggies to a large bowl; add in the cooked rice and all remaining ingredients; mix well to combine, adjusting salt and pepper to taste.
• Transfer to a greased casserole dish.
• Bake (covered or uncovered) for about 30-40 minutes.
• **NOTE** if desired sprinkle grated cheddar cheese over the casserole the last 20 minutes of baking.
• Also, for perfrect converted rice, boil 1-3/4 cups water with 1 cup rice and 2 tablespoons butter (double the water, rice and butter if desired) this will give you a not too soft rice, perfect for this or any recipe.

Steps:

• reheat oven to 375°.
• Cook pasta according to the package directions, omitting salt and fat.
• Drain well. Set cooked pasta aside.
• Cook bacon and set aside to cool.
• Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add shallots; sauté 3 minutes.
• Add mushrooms, 1 tablespoon thyme, salt, pepper, and garlic; sauté 8 minutes or until mushrooms are tender.
• Add sherry; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently.
• Remove from heat.
• Place flour in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat; gradually add milk, stirring constantly with a whisk.
• Bring mixture to a boil; cook 1 minute or until slightly thick, stirring constantly with a whisk.
• Remove from heat; add 1/2 cup cheese, stirring until melted.
• Add pasta and mushroom mixture to cheese mixture, crumble in the bacon, tossing well to combine.
• Spoon pasta mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish lightly coated with cooking spray; sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
• Bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until cheese melts and begins to brown.
• Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in boiling water in a large non-stick saucepan according to pack instructions. Meanwhile, slice the mushrooms and snip the bacon into bite-size pieces with scissors or a sharp knife.
• Reserve a few drops of the cooking water in a cup or bowl, then drain the pasta and set aside. Fry the bacon and mushrooms in the same pan until golden, about 5 mins. Keep the heat high so the mushrooms fry in the bacon fat, rather than sweat.
• Tip the pasta and reserved water back into the pan and stir over the heat for 1 min. Take the pan off the heat, spoon in the pesto and crème fraîche and most of the basil and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the remaining basil to serve.

Steps:

• Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.
• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Cook onions in oil about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the mushrooms, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and browned. Add arugula; cook about 1 minute or until starting to wilt.

• Heat oven to 350°F. Uncover, and bake 30 to 38 minutes or until edges are golden brown and knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
