Great Recipe Great Flavor Very Easy! Made them up ahead of time, worked like a dream. One thing I did was to use the liquid from the mushrooms when you give them their first initial cook. Thats some good flavor NOT to waste. I used crimini's and think I would go a little longer on the cook time before you stuff them. I think I still could have used a little more of the water to have leaked out but dang these were good!
