Crab Stuffed Mushrooms

These were absolutely delicious! And extremely easy to make! We substituted cream cheese for the mayo and it added a creamy texture which complimented the crab nicely. Adding breadcrumbs on top was a nice crunchy touch.





Ingredients:

• 1 pound fresh mushrooms
• 7 ounces crab meat
• 5 green onions, thinly sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon ground savory
• ground black pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/3 cup cream cheese
• 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• bread crumbs

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine crab meat, green onions, herbs, and pepper. Mix in cream cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese until well combined (might need to use your hands to mix). Refrigerate filling until ready for use. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp towel. Remove stems. Spoon out the gills and the base of the stem, making deep cups. Discard gills and stems. Fill the mushroom caps with rounded teaspoonfuls of filling. Top them with paprika, Parmesan cheese and then bread crumbs. Place them in an ungreased shallow baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes (broil if needed to brown the bread crumbs). Remove from oven and serve immediately.
