Mussels With Garlic Crumbs
"Unfortunately I am the only one in the family that really loves mussels so hoping to get the chance of making this when we go on holidays and meet up with others that enjoy. From Australian Good Foods mini cookbook. I would consider this as an entrée or 1st course to a meal or a snack for a crowd."
