Stuffed Mushrooms<br />
Cheese Sauce:<br />
4 Tbsp. butter<br />
4 Tbsp. flour<br />
1 tsp. salt<br />
1/4 tsp. pepper<br />
2 cups milk<br />
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated<br />
Stuffing:<br />
24 large mushrooms<br />
1 lb. crabmeat<br />
1 stick butter<br />
1/2 cup green onion, chopped<br />
1/2 cup Italian style breadcrumbs<br />
1 clove garlic, minced<br />
Creole seasoning<br />
Wash mushrooms; remove and chop stems and set aside.<br />
Cheese Sauce: In medium sauce pan, melt butter over low heat. Add flour, salt and pepper, and<br />
stir until the flour and butter are well blended. Remove <strong>from</strong> heat and stir in milk. Return to heat<br />
and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until thick and smooth. Lower heat and gradually add<br />
cheese, stirring constantly until cheese is completely melted. Remove <strong>from</strong> heat.<br />
Stuffing: In a separate pan, melt butter. Add garlic and green onions and<br />
sauté until done (about 5 minutes). Add crabmeat, mushroom stems and<br />
breadcrumbs. Mix well. Season to taste with Creole seasoning. Add cheese<br />
sauce gradually until mixture reaches desired consistency. Stuff mushrooms<br />
and place in large, buttered casserole dish. If you like, pour remaining cheese<br />
sauce over the mushrooms. Bake at 350° about 15 minutes. Optional: sprinkle<br />
more breadcrumbs on top and place under the broiler until browned.<br />
