When I was first married and hosting my first family Christmas Eve celebration at my home, this was one of the appetizers I prepared. That was almost 20 years ago and my family still requests them each year. They're my 86-yr. old Grandmother's favorite! Very easy to prepare and I've never had any leftover. Can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving. Try them and enjoy! Ingredients:
12 large mushrooms |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1/4 cup chopped bell pepper |
1 clove minced garlic |
12 crushed saltine crackers |
1/2 cup chopped pepperoni |
3 tablespoons grated fresh parmesan cheese |
1/4 teaspoon oregano |
salt and pepper |
1/3 cup chicken broth |
Directions:
1. Remove mushroom stems and chop.
2. In skillet, melt butter, saute mushroom stems, onion, bell pepper, and garlic until onions are clear.
3. Add cracker crumbs, pepperoni, parmesan and seasonings.
4. Add enough chicken broth until mixture is stuffing consistency.
5. Fill caps with stuffing.
6. Place in shallow baking dish with 1/4 water in bottom of pan.
7. Bake uncovered 325 for 25 minutes.
