This dish could be a handy potluck contribution at this time of year - healthy, vegetarian-friendly (pareve), easy party appetizer. Serve with crackers - I like those small multigrain and tamari-flavored rice crackers that Trader Joe's sells. Thanks again, Gloria!


1 C sliced mushrooms
1 C chopped onions
3 T margarine
2 T dry sherry (optional)
3 hard-cooked eggs
¼ lb shelled walnuts or pecans
1 tsp salt
¼ tsp white pepper

1. In a large skillet, sauté mushrooms and onions in the margarine until the onions are golden brown. Stir in sherry and let mixture cook for another minute or so.
2. Pass the mushrooms, onions, hard-cooked eggs, and nuts through a grinder or chop very fine in a chopping bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Refrigerate to chill thoroughly. Serve on lettuce leaves and garnish with tomato wedges and other raw vegetables.
