Emma's Stuffed Mushrooms Florentine Recipe

Emma's Stuffed Mushroom Florentine

• 1 lb Mushrooms of your choice (small or medium)
• 1 Box or Pack of Frozen Chopped Spinach
• 1 Egg
• 1 Cup of Jarlsberg (reduced fat) Swiss Cheese
• 1 Tablespoon Minced Fresh Garlic
• Seasoned Bread Crumbs (optional)

 

Pre heat your oven to 375

Thaw Spinach out and squeeze out the water, beat egg, finely chop cheese, mince garlic.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, and chill for about an hour. (I use a clean towel, I place the thawed spinach in the towel and wring it very hard, until the spinach is dry)

Wash medium size portobello's or baby bello's and dry, scoop out the middle of each.

Dip each Mushroom in melted butter, stuff each Mushroom with the mixture, place on a non stick cookie sheet.

You may add a little Parmesan Cheese to the top.

Bake stuffed Mushrooms until the cheese is melted. YUMMY!

We have found that our clients always run out of this appetizer first.

If you have any questions or cannot find an item need for this recipe, feel free to email or call me, ENJOY!

High Praise from Happy Customers of Culinary Delight Catering

Here's some more letters from happy Los Angeles catering customers, including this first one from the Mom of a one year old who will now remember his birthday as distinctly different from Christmas!

My son's 1st birthday party was so much fun, all the little kids were so happy with the fun food.  All the kids loved the PB&J sandwiches with the animal shapes.  The little sliders were so cute and the little cupcakes were cute to.

Thank you for not making it look like Christmas, even tho it was during that time of year.
We felt happy that our little boy will have some wonderful memories to look back on when he grows up.

I am glad I met you in the store, we had a lot of laughs!

Thank you!

Hi Emma,

I wanted to thank you so much for making our party a great success. My husband was also very impressed with your service and had an amazing time. (he is not easy to please, once he searched for an item forever and gave up) I can not tell you how many people commented on the food and have asked me for your card. I will be recommending you to all our friends. The older people as well as the young people all were impressed with the food, you were like an angel, in less than a week you arranged for the Birthday Cake, rentals, entertainment, servers, bartenders, flowers like magic.. If you are ever stuck for anything I have here on this side of the valley,  please call me, I would be happy to loan it to you. .


Thank you again and best wishes this new year.

Hello Emma,

Happy New Year to you and Ron !!  Our guests had a marvelous time and really enjoyed the ambience and of course the [...] dinner you prepared. Folks are still talking about how tender the Beef Tenderloin was and how tasty and juicy the Chicken Breast were.  The veggies were perfect as was the mac & cheese. and then the Dessert Bar was POPPING with mind blowing choices.  Boy was I exhausted when I finally got back to my suite…smile. But worth it!!!!!

Things were simply lovely, thank you so much for everything, you truly BLASTED the New Year in.

Speak with you soon…warmest regards,

Rave Reviews from the Cupcake Gallery

As usual, Los Angeles caterer Culinary Delight Catering's cupcakes were the hit of the party! And, as usual, the customers have rave reviews!

Good morning Emma,

 

We had a great evening...way better than we had imagined!!!  We enjoyed your wine, appetizers and delicious moist cupcakes you delivered.  I made sure I ordered extra so I have a dozen to take home for myself (and our two kids).  I provided cupcake boxes for my guests who preferred to take the cupcakes into the movie or to take home.  Afterwards our friends watched "Breaking Dawn" in the private screening lounge with loveseats.  It was an awesome time for all!  My friends were so impressed with the event and of course raved about your cupcakes.  Thanks for being part of our event.  You sure were " icing on the cake"!!!

 

I have attached a picture of Dave and myself at our birthday bash.  Your warmth and caring attitude makes us feel like we've known you for a long time.  Hope to meet you someday soon.  Take care and Happy Holidays to you and your family.

 

XOXO

 

The  Arboleda's

Of course, there's more to life than just cupcakes, as our friends at USC know!

And thank you so much for your kind gift! You really shouldn't have done that!

Thank you so much! All of us here in the Dept. of Spanish and Portuguese at USC love you and your business!

Happy Holidays!

Matrimonial Food Bliss

We just love helping make wedding days perfect!

Hi Emma,

Lamont and I just wanted to say thank you again for helping to make our wedding great.  The food was great and I received a lot of compliments on our choice of you as our caterer.  The staff was very friendly and it was also great that they left my mother's kitchen very clean so she didn't have to do any additional clean-up.

Everyone loved the menu and the variety.  My mom loved the spring rolls.  Guests raved about the cupcakes, and the salmon.  Also, many of  my "non-pork eating" friends couldn't stop talking about how they had to break their own rules and chow down on the pulled BBQ pork sandwiches because they were just so good.

Thank you again. It was wonderful

We will definitely use you at our next event and refer your business to many others.

God Bless,
Lamont and Deborah

Happy Los Angeles Catering Customers

Culinary Delight Catering in Los Angeles just loves to get letters from happy customers!

Good morning Emma,

The gang all agreed the TACO BAR was the best beach party we have had.  I did not know there were so many things you could put on a taco, the Carne Asada was really, really good, the Fish was very tasty, your homemade Salsa and Guacamole were huge hits.

OMG your homemade Toritilla Chips are addictings they should be sold in stores, what was on them.LOL!

  WE had a taco competition which added to the fun of getting to know the new employee's it was a cool ICE BREAKER, we will continue to have a competition each year.

Another hit was your S'mores, another cool way to met people.

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL EVENT.

Thanks, Ang

Hi Emma,

Thank you again for the same day order, it’s greatly appreciated J

The cake was a huge success – they loved the filling, the icing and the cake itself – it has the just-baked freshness! It was the first time our office and some of our younger employees have ever had a homemade cake that was baked the some day.

We will order all future cakes from you!

Warmest regards,
