Crab Stuffed Mushrooms: A Flavorful, Elegant Appetizer

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Gently clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems. Set the mushroom caps aside. Finely chop the stems and reserve for the filling.
Make the Crab Filling:

In a medium bowl, combine the crab meat, cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, chopped mushroom stems, minced garlic, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning.
Stir everything together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Stuff the Mushrooms:

Using a spoon, carefully stuff each mushroom cap with the crab mixture, pressing gently to pack it in.
Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
Bake the Mushrooms:

Drizzle the melted butter over the stuffed mushrooms.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown on top.
Garnish and Serve:

Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot, and enjoy the savory, creamy goodness of these crab stuffed mushrooms!
