Crab Stuffed Mushrooms


I love mushrooms and these taste like the ones at Red Lobster! Pretty simple, but delicious flavor!


1 pound fresh mushrooms, approximately 35−40
2 tablespoons celery, finely chopped
2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons red bell pepper, finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 pound crab claw meat
1 cup oyster crackers crushed
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, ground
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Saute celery, onion, and pepper in butter for 2 minutes, transfer to a plate and cool.

While vegetables cool, clean mushrooms and remove stems. Set caps to the side and finely chop half of the stems. Reserve the other half for another use.

Combine the sauteed vegetables, chopped mushroom stems, and all
other ingredients and mix well. If too dry, add a little broth or water.

Place mushroom caps on a baking sheet. Spoon 1 teaspoon of stuffing into each mushroom. Top with a little extra cheese, if desired. Bake in oven for 12−15 minutes until cheese is lightly browned.
