DINNER CLUB RECAP: Lisa's Phyllo-Stuffed Mushrooms

We were missing 2 of our compatriots the other night, but I will recap for them and others, if interested in the recipe(s). This was probably the most healthy dinner club I have made of late ... Appetizers were sliced cucumbers with spreadable whipped cream cheese, a slice of lox, capers, and sliced red onion. The main dish was a stuffed portabello mushroom wrapped and baked in phyllo dough, which stuffing had been pureed in a food processor (crimini mushrooms, olive oil, garlic, pecans, and green onion). Sides were asparagus with minced garlic and lemon zest; and fingerlings with sea salt, pepper, and fresh rosemary from the garden. Dessert was blueberry and blackberry skewers with dipping choices of hershey syrup and vanilla or strawberry yogurts. My motivation: gearing up for spring and using fresh veggies and fruits!
