Method
- Fry the bacon and crumble it as fine as possible.
- Reserve some of the grease.
- Chop the mushrooms, onion, celery, and parsley as fine as possible.
- A food processor works best, but you can do it by hand if need be.
- Saute the onion and the celery in the bacon grease until soft, then remove from the grease and drain.
- Meanwhile, beat the cream cheese slightly, and then beat in the eggs.
- Add all other ingredients to the egg/cheese mixture.
- Mix thoroughly.
- Grease a large loaf pan, line with foil, and then grease the foil.
- Pat the mixture into the loaf pan and cover loosely with foil.
- Bake for 1 1/2 hours at 400 degrees F.
- Let cool completely before serving.
- This pate is actually best when refrigerated before serving.
- Serve with crackers or bread slices.
