"I love mushrooms, and tend to gravitate towards recipes with them in it. This is basically a souffle-type dish, and is very creamy. The recipe originally came from the cookbook "The Company's Cookin" from the Rouse Company of Maryland."

For us this turned out very floury (would look at only using a 1/4 cup of flour) but otherwise we enjoyed and are looking at making again but with a 1/4 cup flour. A different mushroom side to go with a b-b-q sirloin steak and sausage. Thank you breezermom, made for Everyday is a holiday.

I have never made a souffle like recipe before or have eaten one. WELLLLLLLLLLLLL this was an AWESOME recipe to start with. My DH loved it and sauted up leftovers for breakfast this morning LOL I don't have a large souffle dish so used 6 small ramekins and it turned out well but next time I will cut the mushrooms smaller This will be a keeper. Made for Everyday is a Holiday Tag Dec 2008 Thanks for a wonderful recipe
