A Favorite Party Food for the New Year




LISTEN TO THE PODCAST

It's almost New Year's Eve, and do you have your party foods picked.  If not, Chef Billy with Restaurant Associates recommends that's always been a crowd pleaser, Crab-Stuffed Mushrooms. And here's the Tonia's Kitchen twist.  Chef Billy told Tonia he stuffs the filling into fresh mushroom caps, not ones that have been previously cooked.  Bake it all up, cool and serve, and it's almost guaranteed you'll ring in the New Year on the culinary right-foot!
