Creamy Blue Cheese Mushrooms

Makes 20

½   cup chopped pecans

8        ounces cream cheese, softened

½   cup crumbled blue cheese

¼   cup minced parsley

2        teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce

salt and pepper to taste

20    mushroom caps, stems removed

olive oil

20 pecan halves

Spread the chopped pecans on a baking sheet and toast in a preheated 325-degree oven just until they begin to brown, watching to prevent overbrowning.

Combine the cream cheese and blue cheese in a blow and beat until smooth.  Stir in the chopped pecans, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.  Brush the outsides of the mushrooms with olive oil.  Spoon a rounded teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into each mushroom cap and top each with a pecan half.  Place on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through.  Serve hot.
