Crab Stuffed Mushrooms - 1

Recipe Ingredients

1		Crab meat - drained and flaked
1		Cream cheese - softened
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Onion powder - (up to 1/2 teaspoon)
12		Fresh mushrooms - (up to 18) (large)
		White pepper
		Paprika

Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F. Place cream cheese in oven while preheat about 1minute (you just want to soften it not melt it). Lightly oil a baking sheet. Remove stems from mushrooms.

Place mushrooms caps on baking dish close together but not touching. I use to brush the mushroom caps with melted butter but recently have stopped doing so in order to reduce fat. Blend crab meat, cream cheese and onion powder.

Stuff mushrooms with cheese mixture. Use a dash of white pepper atop each stuffed mushroom and sprinkle with paprika.

Bake 10-12 minutes until cheese is bubbly and mushrooms are tender.

NOTE: I do not use the mushroom stems in this recipe I usually save them for some other dish. The number of mushrooms depends on their size. Try using McCormick's California Style Blend Onion Powder- it has green onion and parsley in it.
