Good appetizer
Ingredients
- 1 bag spinach (10 oz.) shopping list
- 6 tbsp. butter shopping list
- 1 cup diced onions shopping list
- 2 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 1 lb. crabmeat, picked clean from shells shopping list
- 6-8 mushrooms, sliced and quartered shopping list
- 2 tbsp. flour shopping list
- 1 cup heavy cream shopping list
- 1/2 cup jalapeno cheese shopping list
- 1/2 cup Ritz cracker crumbs shopping list
- Athens phyllo dough puff pastry shells shopping list
How to make it
- Tear spinach in small pieces, steam and drain and put aside. In saucepan, melt 4 tbsp butter and saute onions and garlic until tender. Stir in mushrooms and crabmeat, reduce heat until mushrooms are tender.
- In separate saucepan, melt remaining 2 tbsp. butter. Add flour slowly, constantly stirring until golden. Slowly stir in cream and spinach until smooth. Add cheese and stir until melted. Add crabmeat and mushroom mixture to cream and spinach mixture. Pour all into lightly greased casserole dish, top with Ritz crumbs and bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Serve over puff pastry shells (found in the freezer section of the supermarket). Fill shells, top with Ritz cracker crumbs and put under broiler until crumbs are browned. You can make these ahead of time, and freeze, and then heat in 350 degree oven for approximately 18-20 minutes. Great to have some on hand in the freezer for quick hors d'oeuvres.
