Please, keep posting!

Ok, then :-)

I've saved the recipes and want to eventually run
them through MasterCook to get the nutritional info. Unfortunately my
version of MasterCook doesn't have the mushrooms you used in the
database, so I have to update it using the USDA database. I stopped
there 'cause I spend so much time reading these groups ;-)
I still have to work and sleep.

I think that, nutritionally, the crimini mushrooms are the same as the
standard white mushrooms; they might also be listed under "brown mushrooms."
They are about the same size as the white ones, but a bit "meatier", more
flavorful and often the same price.

The Stuffed Mushrooms and Shallots in Red Wine sauce sound absolutely
fantastic. I want to try them soon.

The shallots are great, with the warning that 2 cups of wine are about half a
bottle. Either use cheap stuff (don't go with "cooking wine", it tends to have
a lot of added salt) or save them for a festive dinner when you are splurging
anyway. If, like me, you are not a wine drinker, this can be a good way to use
up what you might have left.

I haven't cooked much for a while
because I work nights and getting up and cooking a meal is a bummer, but
I'll be a normal person starting next week (going to day shift) and I'll
need more recipes so hub and I can eat well.

It might be a good idea, putting together a menu for a quick meal. Stuff that
can be prepared in 30 minutes or made ahead. I'll see what I can find in my
recipe box.

Thanks again
As soon as I can I will run these through MasterCook and post some
nutritional information. It may not be for all, but I'll work on it.

Ah, that would be a big help, thank you.
