Stuffed mushrooms

These cheese-stuffed mushrooms make the perfect appetizer or side dish. Start with 4 large mushrooms; remove the stems and wash them well. In a pan, brown 2 minced shallots with 1 garlic clove in some butter. You can also add some thinly sliced ham if you like. Once the shallots and garlic are lightly browned, place the mixture in the mushroom caps and cover with a handful of grated cheese. Feel free to substitute the grated cheese with cream cheese, or even better, garlic and herb cream cheese! And of course, for ultimate cheesiness, add both! Bake for 25 minutes at 350°F and serve hot.
