Last night we had Shrimp with Tomato & Feta. It was very tasty, but the big hit was Gorgonzola Stuffed Mushrooms. I made 1/2 of a recipe for the DH and myself ( the kids don't like mushrooms). We started out eating them and couldn't stop. We were almost to full for the shrimp! The mushroom recipe calls for doing it on the grill, but I did it in a 350 degree oven. I'd cook them 20-30 min. depending on the size of the mushrooms. Also I cut back on the olive oil and added a little white wine for moisture in the stuffing.
