INSTRUCTIONS
Pour 1 1/2 inches of water into a large saucepan, add 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Cut 1 inch from the tops of the onions to make a flat surface. Add the onions to the water, return to a boil and reduce the heat to moderate. Cook, covered for 10 to 15 minutes or until the onions are almost tender but retain their shape. Meanwhile melt the butter in a heavy 10 inch skillet over moderately low heat. Add the mushrooms and saute for 3 to 5 minutes or until tender. Set aside. Drain the onions on a platter lined with paper toweling. When cool enough to handle gently scoop out the insides with a serving spoon, leaving the shells 3/8 to 1/2 inch thick. Make sure that the bottom of each shell remains intact. Chop up the pulp. Preheat the oven to 350. IN a medium bowl mix 1 cup of the chopped pulp, the mushrooms, rice, pecans, egg and salt, thyme, pepper and nutmeg until well blended. Stuff the onions with equal amounts of mixture and place in a lightly greased 13 by 9 by 2 baking dish. Bake covered for 45 minutes, uncover, bake 10 minutes longer.
