Cheesy Mushroom Tart

Cheesy Mushroom TartTarts aren’t always sweet. Nope they can absolutely be savory too.  Versatile dishes, those are my favorite, back to that whole loving options thing and versatile is the perfect way to describe this particular tart.

This beautiful little baby is perfect as an appetizer as a light lunch or even dinner or (because we’re not stopping with that) it’s elegant enough to serve for all your post party guests. Want more? It can be served warm or room temperature.

 

I like to keep a few boxes of puff pastry in my freezer at all times. They’re perfect for both sweet and savory recipes and have saved me more times than I care to admit. To make this tart, you’ll start off by forming the thawed pastry sheet onto your tart pan. If you don’t happen to have a rectangular pan, you can absolutely you a small round pan. No pans at all? No worries, just cut the pastry into squares and freehand this.

A simple saute of mushrooms (any fresh variety will work beautifully) with a few fabulous ingredients and a mixture of cheeses and your filling is ready to be smoothed into the tart crust. Pop that beauty into the oven for a few minutes and then enjoy a slice (or two)!

Cheesy Mushroom Tart

We’ve prepared our tart in a rectangular tart pan but you can use a round tart pan, mini tart pans or go crazy and just free form the puff pastry if you don’t have any tart pans on hand. Now let’s talk about the good stuff. The filling.

It’s  cheesy creamy and stuffed with mushrooms. I’m kind of of the belief that mushrooms go with just about anything so this is a winner winner tart dinner for me.
