Stuffed mushrooms are one of those bite-sized wonders that you just can’t afford NOT to make for a party or casual get-together. Everyone will love them. And I mean everyone as in, no matter how many people you have over and mushrooms you plan to make, you’ll probably have to make many more. I challenge that even the guest who detests mushrooms could fall in love with a fungus plump with this buttery bread crumb and creamy crab mixture with a kick of subtle spice. People, these are so damn good.
Wait. Did I ruin it for you with the “fungus” remark? Let’s hope not.
You and whoever else has the pleasure of eating them, are going to love these. I’d even say you could skip the crabmeat and make this a veggie-friendly dish. It’s guaranteed to be just as delicious!
