Southwestern Stuffed Mushrooms

May 3, 2011 By Julie 36 Comments

Kids say the darndest things.  Last night we were sitting down to dinner, enjoying some quality time, when Alex made a sudden declaration that he didn’t like meat.  “All meat?”  I inquired.  “No meat.” he replied.  So I asked him the next logical question that came to my mind.  “Do you think you might want be a vegetarian when you grow up?”  An overly exaggerated look of utter frustration washed over his face as he rolled his eyes at me and sighed.  “I thought we already discussed this.  I want to be an ice cream truck driver when I grow up!”  Silly, silly mommy for asking such a ridiculous question.  But hey, as long as he drives his truck through my neighborhood it’s all good to me.

I threw in a little of this, and a bit of that.  The steam was rising and the water was bubbling.  All I needed was my witches hat, a wart and a good cackle, and I would have been concocting one seriously wicked witches brew.   When the smoke cleared and the spoon was laid to rest, what remained was one seriously delicious white chicken chili.
