I would love to personally thank the person that first thought of taking a mushroom, stuffing it full of deliciousness, and baking it. This person deserves some sort of an award. Maybe I will hunt them down and send them some bacon. Speaking of bacon... I decided to sneak a little bit of bacon into this recipe. You're welcome!!

Ingredients
- 1 pound large cremini mushrooms (About 20), cleaned and de-stemmed

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. (Alternatively, you can use a mini muffin tin to hold the mushrooms upright. (I use this one) It will hold them snugly in place and keep them from falling over and losing their toppings.
- Bake mushroom caps for 10 minutes. Pour out any excess moisture that pools in the mushrooms caps.In a large mixing bowl, combine crab, bacon, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, sour cream, garlic, green onions, Dijon, salt and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Stuff each mushroom with crab mixture. Bake for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top each mushroom with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes or until cheese on top is golden brown.
