24 medium size cremini mushrooms
½ cup goat cheese
1 cup ground sausage
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
Preheat oven to 350°. Cook sausage in a large skillet, and allow to cool to room temperature.
Wipe down mushrooms, remove stems, and use a spoon to gently clean out the mushroom caps.
Mix together cheese, sausage, red pepper flakes, and salt. Stuff each mushroom cap with filling, packing down the stuffing as much as possible. Arrange in an oven-safe dish.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Why does this Haywood County town have some of the cleanest water in the state? It’s the result of the community’s efforts to keep the forests in its watershed pristine.
The spectacular views in North Carolina’s High Country aren’t just inspiration for writers, painters, and sculptors. Those landscapes — the rugged gray face of Grandfather Mountain, the vibrant fall leaves, the deep green meadows — are brushstrokes on Earth’s own canvas.
The sprawling vineyards and wide-open skies that stretch for miles across seven North Carolina counties offer relaxing getaways — not to mention some of the state’s finest wines — for Sunday drivers aching to escape the rush of city life.
Nothing lasts forever — and that’s what makes many of our cherished moments so special.
