Vicki’s Crab Stuffed Mushrooms

About

Brenda Gantt

I am a self-taught cook. I started cooking around 18 years old. I stood in the kitchen and watched my mother, who was my biggest inspiration at the time, cook.

Another tempter from Vicki Cash’s 2002 Low Carb Success Calendar!

Yield: 6 appetizer-size servings, each with 4.5 grams of carbohydrates and 1 gram of fiber, for a total of 3.5 grams of usable carbs and 10 grams of protein.

INGREDIENTS

  • 10 ounces medium portobello mushrooms
  • 2 Wasa Fiber Rye crackers
  • 1 can (6 ounces) crabmeat
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill weed
  • 1 teaspoon dehydrated onion flakes
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

 

INSTRUCTIONS 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp cloth, and remove their stems. Set aside 1/2 cup of stems. Place the caps on an ungreased baking sheet.
  3. Use a food processor with the S blade attached to grind the crackers into coarse crumbs. Add the 1/2 cup of mushroom stems, processing until coarsely chopped. Add the crabmeat, egg, lemon juice, dill, onion, and cheese. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the mushroom caps.
  5. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the top of the stuffing is slightly browned.
  6. Serve hot.
