| ½ | cup | Green onions; chopped |
| 1 | cup | Mushroom caps; sliced |
| 2 | tablespoons | Pickapeppa sauce |

Directions
Fry bacon in a large black-iron skillet; drain and crumble. Pour off drippings. Melt butter in the skillet and saut‚ the green onions until soft. Add the mushrooms, Pickapeppa sauce and Tabasco; cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Add the oysters and cook over medium heat until edges curl.
By this time, oysters should be plump and appear very contented in the rich sauce surrounding them. Remove from heat, scatter the crumbled bacon, and sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly. Do not stir. Cover with shredded cheese and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until the cheese melts. Remove from oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley, and EAT DAT! As a main course: serves 6 gourmets or 4 gourmands. As an appetizer: serves 12.
