24 Large fresh mushrooms, 1 ½ to 2 inches in diameter
¼ cup sliced green onions
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup butter or margarine
2/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
½ cup shredded cheddar or smoked Gouda cheese or crumbled blue cheese (2 ounces)

Rinse and drain mushrooms. Remove stems; reserve caps. Chop enough stems to make one cup. In a medium saucepan cook the chopped stems, green onions, and garlic in butter until tender. Stir in bread crumbs and cheese. Spoon crumb mixture into mushroom caps. Arrange stuffed mushrooms in a 15x10x1 inch baking pan. Bake in a 425° oven 8 to 10 minutes or until heated through.
