Ingredients
  

  • 1 C crabmeat
  • ½ C cream cheese softened
  • ½ C fresh parsley chopped
  • ½ C green onion chopped
  • 4 T Parmesan cheese
  • ½ t salt
  • ¼ t pepper
  • ¼ t garlic powder
  • ½ C breadcrumbs
  • lbs mushrooms caps only
  • Vegetable spray

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Remove stems from mushrooms and gently clean the caps without submerging in water.
  • Combine crabmeat, cream cheese, parsley, onions, and Parmesan. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder, mix well. You can make the filling ahead of time, just be sure to let it come to room temperature before using so it's not too stiff.
  • Stuff the caps with the crab mixture. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Spray tops with vegetable spray. Transfer to oven and bake for 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Notes

These are not great as leftovers, so don't make them ahead of time and expect to warm them up on the day of the dinner party. Unless you make way too many, you shouldn't have an issue with leftovers, though.
