Stuffed Low Fat (Big) Mushrooms

Submitted by jenjen

"After sifting through MANY MANY recipes for stuffed mushrooms, I found that none of them satisfied my taste. I didn't want to use cream cheese, sour cream, since I prefer it more low fat. This is what I came up with. The measurements are approximate. I recommend adding your own flair to yours. Served them at a dinner party where they disappeared in no time!!"
