MUSHROOM BROCCOLI CUPS
From Quick Cooking Nov/Dec 2003 submitted by L. Senuta. Usually I only post recipes I've tried but I need to save this recipe for a party coming up soon in 2008. Let me know your thoughts if you make it. *^*^*^*^*^* Edited April 2009.... I have made this recipe now and Sharon was correct.... it was lacking something as is so I've adjusted the recipe in a few ways. First use a firm wheat bread - gives it more depth of flavor. Then saute the veggies first. I've also added a clove of garlic while sauteeing - that gave it more of a burst of flavor. I hope you like the outcome now that it has been tweaked.

"This is my very favorite appetizer and the one all my friends and family ask me to make," says Linda Senuta of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. "I've given out this recipe to so many people that I've lost count. I use the leftover read to make croutons," she adds.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Mushrooms: For the best flavor and texture, use a combination of fresh mushrooms, such as white button, cremini, and shiitake.
- Chop the Mushrooms Finely: Finely chopping the mushrooms will help them cook evenly and blend well with the other ingredients in the cups.
- Cook the Mushrooms Until Browned: Cooking the mushrooms until they are browned will help to develop their flavor and give the cups a nice texture.
- Use Fresh Broccoli Florets: Fresh broccoli florets will give the cups the best flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh broccoli, you can use frozen broccoli that has been thawed and drained.
- Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season the cups generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the mushrooms and broccoli.
- Use a Muffin Tin: A muffin tin is the perfect vessel for baking the mushroom and broccoli cups. It will help to keep the cups in place and prevent them from spilling over.
- Serve Immediately: Mushroom and broccoli cups are best served immediately after they are baked. This will allow you to enjoy them while they are hot and flavorful.
