2 cups heavy cream, divided |
2 tablespoons dry white wine |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
2 cups imitation crabmeat |
1/2 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
1/4 cup fresh parsley |
1 (10 ounce) bag frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon rosemary, crushed |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves |
1/4 onion, minced |
4 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Grease a 2-quart, glass baking dish.
