ellen's easy stuffed mushrooms

my sisster ellen guest blogged for me a while back and posted some recipes that have become tried and true favorites. one of which was these easy stuffed mushrooms:

Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms
30 large fresh mushrooms (or more or less, whatever)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 pound sausage cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese (the recipe calls for swiss but I've never tried it)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
3 T melted margarine or butter
2 T finely chopped onion
2 T spicy brown mustard
1 t garlic salt
1 t cajun seasoning
1 t Worcestershire sauce

Remove mushroom stems; set caps aside.

In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Stuff into the mushroom caps. Place in greased 13 in. x 9 in. x 2 in. baking dish(es). Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 16-20 min.

sarah cox's baked bean dip

my friend sarah made this for me once and i've never looked at another bean dip. it's just sooo good. i don't normally like sour cream in things, so i add a little less than the recipe calls for.

1 can of refried beans
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
mozzarella cheese
green onion
tomato

dice your onion & tomato and layer on the bottom of a 9x13 pan. mix the beans, sour cream, chili powder, lemon juice, and cheddar cheese together well, and spread on top of the tomatoes and onions. sprinkle with mozzarella and bake at 350* for 20 minutes. serve warm with tortilla chips.

chili cheese dip

1 can of chili
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
1/4 diced onion
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
frito chips

combine the chili, soup, onion and cheese together in a saucepan. crush a handfull of chips in, then mix together and heat in a saucepan until warm and bubbly. serve with large dipping fritos. it is SO good. i promise!
