Mushrooms Stuffed with Parsley-Garlic Butter
- 3 ounces parsley, washed
- 24 mushroom caps, about 2 1/2 inches in diameter
- 6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 3 slices whole wheat bread, about 1/2 inch thick
- Preheat the broiler.
- Remove and discard as many of the parsley stems as possible.
- Wipe each mushroom cap with a damp towel.
- Remove the stems and reserve them for some other use.
- In a blender or food processor, combine 4 tablespoons of the butter with the parsley, pine nuts, garlic, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Process until finely pureed.
- Stuff some of this mixture into each mushroom cap and place the caps on a baking sheet.
- Halve each slice of bread, so that you have 6 triangles.
- Saute the bread triangles in the remaining butter until they are golden-brown on both sides.
- Salt them lightly and set aside.
- Just before serving, broil the mushrooms about 2 inches away from the heat, for about 5 minutes, or until they begin to soften and the butter is almost completely melted.
- Serve the mushrooms on the toast.
