Stuffed Mushrooms

Here is my personal favorite appetizer. Go ahead and purchase a lot more mushrooms than what you think you will need. They will reduce in size as they bake and they taste so good they'll get gobbled up in no time flat! We no longer have the ability to purchase whole mushrooms individually at any of the local grocery stores. Now we have to purchase them in cartons and take what you get. I always liked picking the biggest, prettiest mushrooms because it made the prep time so much better. Enjoy!
