Helen's Best Mushroom Stuffed Pesto - the ingredients: 4 cups organic basil with leaves and stems (or use Trader Joe's whole container of organic basil), 1/4 cup organic parsley, 1 cup pine nuts, 1/3 cup olive oil, 3 cloves of garlic, and 1 1/2 tsp sea salt or Celtic salt and organic crimini mushrooms.

In a food processor pulse all of the ingredients until the garlic is minced well.  Wash the organic mushrooms, brushing off any dirt and de-stem (save stems for other use.) Place the mushrooms upside down with bottoms up.  Stuff each mushroom with about one tablespoon of pesto.  Place on a teflex sheet or dehydrator tray and dehydrate for about 1-2 hours at about 95 degrees. Best served warm but good cold also.

I always make these in a dehydrator because it preserves the enzymes and phytonutrients due to the low heat.  If you don't have a dehydrator you can try to make these in an oven at the lowest temperature for a short period of time.  Try 10 to 15 minutes or so.  Now I haven't tried it with an oven so you would have to experiment, but you want to preserve the healthy benefits of these pesto mushrooms by using little heat.
