Mushrooms are delicious in and out of itself. But have you had STUFFED mushrooms that are filled with your favorite gems? I personally love tuna a lot so first thing I thought of was stuffing tuna in these mini treasure chests. Don’t let the photo fool you in thinking it’ll take lots of time to make; this is again an easy recipe that will leave everyone coming back for more!
