CHEESE STUFFED MUSHROOM APPETIZER
A local restaurant in North Carolina made these. I loved them, but they were horribly expensive. So I figured out how to make them on my own. They are truly rich and delicious. Serve about 6 each as an appetizer. The filling is soft and creamy, if you prefer a firmer filling add an egg white to the cheese mixture.

MUSHROOM ON ITALIAN BREAD - APPETIZER
This is a great little appetizer to make - definitely goes down a treat. Given that it depends on how many you are making I am putting down very vague measurements (in truth I dont measure, but make as I go as its easier), so please dont take any notice of the measurements. Basically what you are after is a creamy mushroom topping for the bread, not too runny and not too thick.

Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms: For this recipe, cremini mushrooms are recommended as they have a mild flavor and firm texture that holds up well when cooked. Feel free to experiment with other mushroom varieties such as shiitake, oyster, or portobello.
- Clean the mushrooms thoroughly: Use a damp cloth or paper towel to gently wipe the dirt and debris off the mushrooms. Avoid rinsing them under running water as this can make them soggy.
- Slice the mushrooms evenly: This will help them cook evenly and look more appealing. Aim for slices that are about 1/4 inch thick.
- Use a large skillet: This will give the mushrooms enough space to cook without overcrowding. If you use a small skillet, the mushrooms will steam instead of browning.
- Cook the mushrooms over medium heat: This will allow them to brown slowly and develop a rich flavor. Avoid cooking them over high heat as this will make them tough.
- Add butter and garlic: Butter adds a rich flavor to the mushrooms, while garlic adds a savory note. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
- Serve the mushrooms immediately: They are best enjoyed hot out of the skillet. You can garnish them with fresh parsley or chives for an extra touch of flavor.
