Roasted Mushrooms with Dijon and Romano
This is a delicious side dish. It doesn't work as a passed appetizer, the mushrooms need to be fairly large. 2 1/2" or larger. But if it's served on a plate it could work nicely as an appetizer, side dish, or even a main course. I love this recipe and make it often. Roasting the mushrooms gives them a nice dense texture.

- Remove them from the heat and place them open side up in the baking dish. Bake them for 15-20 minutes.
