MUSHROOM CRAB MELTS
I received this recipe from my grandmother. The rich open-faced treats are a favorite main dish alongside a green salad, but I've also cut them into quarters to serve as hors d'oeuvres. To save time, make the crab-mushroom topping early in the day and store it in the refrigerator. -Jean Bevilacqua, Rhododendron, Oregon
