Good potluck recipes - mushrooms

[Guest guest]

I think I've sent this once before, but its a favorite

of mine and is better cooked the day before its

eaten... flavors blend better.

 

 

 

Mushroom Lastrada

(That I've been making since I was 16)

 

8 slices of buttered (soft) bread cut in fourths

 

1 lb fresh mushrooms, coarsely sliced sauted in butter

 

 

1/2 cup chopped celery

 

1/2 cup chopped onion

 

1/2 cup chopped green pepper

 

1/2 cup mayonnaise

 

3/4 tsp. salt

 

1/2 tsp. pepper

 

 

Place 1/2 of the bread pieces on the bottom of a 7 1/2

x 10 " baking pan, buttered side down.

 

Make a mixture of the rest of the above and spread it

over the bread. Put the rest of the bread on top of

the mixture. Take 2 slightly beaten eggs and mix with

1 1/3 cups milk. Pour over top layer of bread.

 

Cover tightly with aluminum foil and refrigerate over

night (or at least for one hour).

          

Just before baking, pour one can undiluted cream of

mushroom soup over the top.

 

Add parmesan cheese.

 

Bake at 300° for 60 to 70 minutes.
