Stuffed Mushrooms with Crabmeat
A hollowed-out mushroom cap makes an ideal little edible bowl, perfect for filling with cream cheese and bacon, creamed spinach and ham, Italian sausage and cheese, or crabmeat. These—made with fresh crab, a little bit of low-fat mayo, and real bacon—are a real caloric bargain. A single serving (4 large mushrooms) nets you only 4 grams of fat and just under 120 calories.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450˚F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Step 2
Lay the mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet, gill side up. Spray them with cooking spray, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake until the mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir together the crabmeat, mayonnaise, bacon bits, peas, chives, and panko. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4
Divide the mixture among the mushrooms, covering the top of each mushroom completely and mounding the filling high. Bake until the crab mixture is hot throughout and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
