Pesto Mushroom Bites

July 21, 2014 by Tiffany

Welcome to Seeing Sunshine! I'm so glad you've stopped by! Make sure you never miss a post by subscribing via email. This post may contain affiliate links, so be sure to view my disclosure policy.

Sometimes, my husband likes to cook. I love it because it means I don’t have to. He likes trying new creations. One day he came home from work and had hit up the grocery store. He had several ingredients that weren’t on our list. Soon the knives were coming out and the oil was being poured into a frying pan. The smell was amazing, and I pondered over to the kitchen to see what was being made.

I have to admit, what I saw didn’t look too good. But I tried his creation. To my surprise, it was really good. In fact, I asked him if I could have more, and the next day I asked him to make it again!

These pesto mushroom bites are great as an appetizer!

Pesto Mushroom Bites

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Naan Bread (We used garlic flavored)
  • Portobello Mushrooms, chopped
  • Blue Cheese
  • Pesto
  • Olive Oil

Ingredients for Pesto Mushroom Bites

Start by chopping up the Portobello mushrooms. Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan and saute those mushrooms for a few minutes on medium heat.

Add a little more olive oil to your pan. On medium heat, grill the naan bread until it’s crisp but not burnt.

    Hi Tiffany. Thanks so much for stopping by My Pinterventures to visit. I popped over to visit too and would love if you shared some of your posts on the Merry Monday Linky Party too. BTW- I love the idea of making a mushroom spread for bread. I’ll have to give this a try since I have some mushrooms in the fridge that I need to use.
