  • 3 hard-boiled eggs, well-chilled
  • 2 tablespoons of minced parsley
  • 1¼-cup flour for coating purposes
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ½- ¾ cup, fine dry breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon of water
  • vegetable (for frying)

Cooking instructions

Peel hard-cooked eggs. Make sure the eggs are well chilled so that the sausage meat will cling to them more easily.
Combine sausage and parsley in a bowl; mix well.
Flatten the sausage on a wax paper and make a big patty to surround the eggs. Use water to smooth the surface of the baseball-shaped meat.
Very lightly flour the sausage and coat with beaten egg. Roll in breadcrumbs to cover evenly.


Pan fry while making sure each side is well cooked. Bake at 350 deg F in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Cut in slices after cooling. Serve over a bed of spinach and tomatoes for garnishing. Use of a white sauce is optional. May also be served on a slice of rye bread with french cornichons or caper on the top. It is truly delicious!

STUFFED MUSHROOMS (an Agnes Kohn's Appetizer Recipe)

Ingredients

1 12-oz Package of Papa George's Reduced Fat Pork Sausage Roll (Hot, Sage, or combination)

  • 2 mushroom boxes
  • l g (16oz) soft cream cheese (Soften in microwave, and be sure to watch if you do this)
  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1 med size onion (finely chopped)
  • 3-4 teaspoons of minced garlic (or to taste)

Cooking instructions

Clean the mushrooms (remove the stems). Keep about half a dozen stems to the side. You may discard the rest away. Finely chop the onion (by hand or using a salsa maker) and then sauté in olive oil. Brown Papa George's sausage, then cool off so you can use some paper towel to remove the grease by patting dry. Finely chop 6 to 8 mushroom stems. Soften the cream cheese in a microwave, and mix in a bowl the softened cream cheese, the browned sausage, the sautéed onion & garlic and minced mushroom stems. Dip the cleaned mushrooms in melted butter and place in a baking dish; fill each mushroom with the filling and bake at 350 for approx 20 mins. These can be made ahead of time and microwaved to warm them before serving. Enjoy!

Makes 6 servings.
