Mushroom Broccoli Cups image

From Quick Cooking Nov/Dec 2003 submitted by L. Senuta. Usually I only post recipes I've tried but I need to save this recipe for a party coming up soon in 2008. Let me know your thoughts if you make it. *^*^*^*^*^* Edited April 2009.... I have made this recipe now and Sharon was correct.... it was lacking something as is so I've adjusted the recipe in a few ways. First use a firm wheat bread - gives it more depth of flavor. Then saute the veggies first. I've also added a clove of garlic while sauteeing - that gave it more of a burst of flavor. I hope you like the outcome now that it has been tweaked.
