These mushrooms were so good, in the sense that you could really taste the mushroom and crab. They weren't too cheesy and the flavors didn't overpower the delicate crab taste. And the lime is an absolute must, it totally changed the taste after.

4 tablespoons butter
1 small onion or 1/2 a large onion
1 slice of wheat bread

parmesan cheese
egg
salt, pepper, cayenne, basil, cumin, parsley, etc. (a shake of each)
bread crumbs
lime

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. While preheating, toast slice of bread in oven or use toaster.
2. Saute onion in 2 tablespoons butter.
3. Meanwhile gently wipe clean/wash mushrooms. Pull off stem and chop them up into bits.
