I desperately want to make crab stuffed mushrooms for holiday appetizers and this recipe looks like it's real tasty, however, I have a family member who absolutely does not like onions, would the taste be so different if I leave them out? I've searched and cannot find a recipe without onion, green or otherwise. Thanks for any input, Happy Holidays

Awesome!!!! I also used fresh minced garlic and shallots in place of onions. I also used Panko bread crumbs and in the butter I drizzled over mushrooms, I sprinkled a little Old Bay dry seasoning. I also used Parmesan for the stuffing, but used mozzarella to top them instead of Parmesan. This is my new stuffed mushroom recipe!!!!

I would of given five stars but I made changes. I added one package of cream cheese instead of the mayo and egg. Used two cloves of fresh mince garlic and used garlic powder instead of garlic salt, I'm a garlic lover and can't handle too much salt. Also I added a heaping tablespoon of horseradish, which really adds a full flavor and brings everything together. Lastly I added about 1/8 of a cup of melted butter just for little extra. I know its a lot of changes, but I pretty much combined all the things I like from two different recipes that were ok but missing a few things. Mushroom caps usually are a hit a any gathering, but I am still shocked about how quickly two cookie sheets of these babies went. I will be making these again and again!

I also used Panko bread crumbs and in the butter I drizzled over mushrooms, I sprinkled a little Old Bay dry seasoning. I also used Parmesan for the stuffing, but used mozzarella to top them instead of Parmesan. This is my new stuffed mushroom recipe!!!!
