This is a collection of my recipes. Many are quite old, and have been handed down through generations of my very Southern family. There are others that I have collected over decades of cooking. The purpose of this blog is to preserve and pass them on to the younger generations of my family, and to share with old and new friends. You are welcome and appreciated here.

Crostini with Mushrooms
Ingredients:
3 TBS butter
1/2 # white mushrooms, stemmed and chopped
4 oz. crimini mushrooms, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ C whipping cream
½ C crumbled blue cheese (about 2 oz.)
½ C chopped thinly sliced prosciutto (about 2 ½ oz.)
18 crostini- ½ thick slices of French baguette, toasted
Salt and pepper
Chopped parsley, optional
Instructions:
Melt butter in heavy skillet. Add mushrooms and garlic and sauté until mushrooms are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Add cream and boil until liquid is absorbed. Add blue cheese and stir until it melts. Mix in prosciutto. Season to taste with salt and pepper. This can be made one day ahead and refrigerated. Preheat oven to 375*. Arrange bread slices on baking sheet. Bake until just golden, about 5 minutes. Mound 1 generous TBS mushroom mixture on each slice. Return to oven; bake until heated through, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.
Another delicious dish from my friend Carol!
