Do you know how to make a delicious vegetarian appetizer for your weekend party? (Adrian Johnson Jr.)

This weekend you would be having a small party at your place and you also invited your best friend. But this has also made you a little tensed, as your best friend is now vegetarian. Your mother being a seasoned cook, shares with you her delicious vegetarian appetizer recipe; it is stuffed mushrooms.

How do you prepare this vegetarian appetizer?

You are aware that your friend loves mushrooms. This delicious appetizer has been very popular in the various parties that your mother had arranged in her home. The basic ingredients needed to prepare stuffed mushrooms are:
Whole mushrooms: 12
Any type of vegetable oil: 1 tbs
Finely chopped garlic: 1 tbs
Fresh Parmesan cheese: ? cup
Ground pepper: ? teaspoon
Onion powder: ? teaspoon
Ground cayenne pepper: ? teaspoon

Below is the preparation process to make stuffed mushrooms appetizer.

Before you start preparing the delicious appetizer you have to clean the mushrooms properly with a damp towel. Do not directly wash the mushrooms with water, as their texture would get softened and the whole taste of the appetizer would be spoilt.
Once cleaned, break and remove the stems of the mushrooms. Now chop the stem portion of the mushrooms finely, discarding any rough ends.
Prepare a baking tray and spray it lightly with cooking oil. Then preheat the oven to around 350 F.

In a skillet heat oil till heat reaches medium temperature. Now in the heated skillet add the finely chopped garlic and the chopped mushroom stem portions. Your mother told you that at this stage, your kitchen would now be filled with aroma of this delicious appetizer when the mushrooms are being fried. You should take care and prevent the garlic from burning. Otherwise, the burnt garlic would add bitterness to the appetizer and your hard work would go in vain.

Once the mushrooms have been properly fried and the moisture has been removed from them you can leave them to cool off to room temperature.
Now in a clean glass bowl, add the fried mushroom and garlic mixture. In the same mixture add the other ingredients, which would make the appetizer delicious. These are parmesan cheese, black and cayenne pepper and onion powder. Blend all the ingredients well and the stuffing mixture should have a thick consistency.
Now with a small spoon, add the mushroom stuffing gently to the crown of the mushrooms.
Place the stuffed mushrooms gently on the baking tray. You do not want to break the mushrooms and destroy the presentation of this delicious appetizer.
In the preheated oven, the stuffed mushroom appetizer is baked for around twenty minutes.
The stuffed mushrooms are cooked until the cheese has melted.
That is how you prepare this vegetarian appetizer for your friend. At the end of the day, this will become a hit food and you promise to your guests, that you would make more of these stuffed mushrooms on the next party. For preparing easy appetizers(also called nemme forretter by the Danish chefs) like a pro, you should take advantage from some of the best Isabellas ideas and recipes.

Corn and Tomato Salsa - corn makes a lovely addition to tomato salsa. It adds a fresh crunchy texture and flavour. You can enhance the corn by char-grilling before you add the kernels to the salsa. This is great paired with flat breads like tortillas and pittas. You can also enjoy salsa on salads and with grilled meat.Roasted Garlic Dip - if you love garlic then this is a great choice for your party table. Roasting garlic takes away some of the bitterness and strong smell. This creates a very subtle, fragrant garlic flavour that is wonderful with fresh warm French baguette.Guacamole - this is one of the most popular in the world. Made with fresh avocados this dip is rich, creamy and very tasty. Guacamole is often paired with tomato salsa as an accompaniment to tortilla chips or fajitas. It also makes a great dip for pitta breads, French bread and seeded rolls.Lemon, Chilli and Coriander - there is something special about the fresh flavours of lemon, chilli and coriander combined. Coriander is a wonderfully fragrant herb that goes incredibly well with chillies. Combine this with the fresh zing of lemon juice and you get a very tasty dip. This works well with crackers, fresh bread and also as on salads.

Begin the Year with Some Delicious Seafood Dishes

A new year has begun and you must be making plans for dinners and lunch parties with your friends for the first weekend of the year. Have you decided on the menu yet? If not then you might consider including some seafood in it. Beginning the year with a delicious dish of seafood will make sure that you have a delightful year ahead.

The best thing about selecting seafood is that you have a number of recipes to try out. Also there are recipes that differ on the level of difficulty. There are many recipes that are suitable for the novice cooks while some are suitable only for the most expert hands.

Also, you get to choose from a huge variety of seafood like shrimp, lobster, crab, etc. depending on your preference. Make sure that you are taking into account the likes of all the guests you are inviting.

However, getting a fresh supply of seafood is not a big deal since there are so many online stores. Even if you do not live near the sea, you can serve live lobster to your guests. There are a number of online stores that sell fresh seafood and deliver them right to your doorstep. So you do not have to go shopping for seafood for the party. A few clicks are going to take care of all the shopping.

Now, you have to find a recipe. Most of us have mothers and grandmothers who have baskets full of recipes for seafood. For those who are not so lucky there is the internet and the search engine. Just like you shopped for the seafood, a few clicks are also going to help you find the right kind of recipe for your party. Here are a few suggestions for seafood recipes.

Surf & Turf Lettuce Wraps: picked lobster meat wrapped in lettuce is a delicacy that every seafood lover is going to love.

Herbed Lobster roll: Give a twist to the classic lobster roll recipe with some creme fraiche and any fresh herbs for your choice.

Lobster Paella Valencia: Paella is one of the Italian favorites that we love to have in our menu. Make it a delicacy to remember for the guest by adding lobster meat to it.

It is always good to try out new things. But make sure that you are not serving a completely new dish to your guest that you haven't tried before. A little practice always helps.

Mak Jones is a professed seafood lover. Here, he gives us an outline of some seafood recipes that the readers might try out for the party in the first weekend of the year.
