12 to 15 large mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, chopped finely
2 ounces diced pepperoni
1/4 cup finely chopped green pepper
1 small clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup finely crushed Ritz crackers, about 12 crackers
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

1/3 cup chicken broth

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Wash mushrooms and remove stems. Finely chop stems and reserve.

In a large skillet, melt butter and cook onion, pepperoni, green pepper, garlic and chopped mushroom stems until tender but not brown. Add crackers, parmesan, parsley, salt, oregano and a dash of pepper, and mix well. Spoon mixture into mushroom caps, heaping tops. In a shallow baking pan with 1/4-inch water covering bottom of pan, place stuffed mushrooms. Bake uncovered about 25 minutes until heated thoroughly.
