"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Ingredients:  
3 T olive oil
6 oz each shiitake, button & Crimini mushrooms, coarsely sliced

1 tsp dried sage

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º. Generously butter an 8x8x2 baking dish. Heat olive oil in large pan and add all mushrooms, garlic, basil, parsley, sage and thyme and saute for 10 mins. Remove from heat; season with s & p. In a bowl whisk eggs, cream, milk and 1/4 cup parmesan. Add cubed bread to buttered dish and pour cream/egg mixture over it - let sit for 30 mins to allow liquid to soften bread cubes. Stir in mushroom mixture, then sprinkle 2 T parmesan over the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes. Can be broiled for a few minutes at the end, to brown the topping.

Personal Notes:
To increase this recipe, I recommend adding proportionally more liquid than dry ingredients. (i.e. double the eggs, cream, milk and cheese, and multiply the bread & mushrooms by 1.5) Otherwise the pudding gets a bit dry. "If you don't eat yer meat, ye can't have any pudding!"
