Amazing recipe.....
mushroom canapes.. i love mushrooms a lot.. and these bite size canapes.. has made my parties and snack time a great hit.. the perfectly cooked mushroom.. and the dash of parsely and oregano.. just gives a different taste to the canapes.. It is also has a white sauce base which keeps it moist..
