I haven't tried it yet but I found it in a coupon book and it looks quick, easy, and delicious! It would probably taste good with bacon bits in it and a side of potato soup or clam chowder. :)

MUSHROOM CRAB MELTS

Mushroom Crab Melts image

I received this recipe from my grandmother. The rich open-faced treats are a favorite main dish alongside a green salad, but I've also cut them into quarters to serve as hors d'oeuvres. To save time, make the crab-mushroom topping early in the day and store it in the refrigerator. -Jean Bevilacqua, Rhododendron, Oregon
