Without doing a cost analysis or knowing your budget, just an idea
tossed out into cyberwotzit FWIW...
Savory Toasted Cheese packed into mushroom caps and broiled? Cheese
being a classic end-of-meal savory even in the Middle Ages because it
closes the chest and stomacke... I mean stomach. Mushrooms, well,
because they form a convenient container.
