Clean the mussels and remove their beards, discarding any mussels that won't close. Place them in a pan with a little wine and cook until the shells have started to open.
Remove the mussels from their shells, but reserve one half of each shell. Place the half shells on a baking sheet and put one mussel back into each one.
Combine garlic, parsley, oregano, parmigiana, and bread crumbs and sprinkle these over each mussel.
Dribble with olive oil and a little white wine and bake for 10 minutes.
Serve, hot and golden.
Yum. These were a great fast dinner. I'd do them again (in greater quantity) for a fancy pants cocktail party.
parsley -- $1.99
mussels -- $2.23
Total Cost of Roasted Breaded Mussels: $4.22
($4.22 per serving as a meal, $2.11 per serving as an appetizer)
This is a tasty meal that you enjoyed. Somehow when think of mussels, I think of a fussy meal that you would serve guests that you want to impress-You provided a whole new light on serving mussels. Thank you!

We love mussels at our house. I could definitely make a meal of these. Does Matt know what he's missing? (smile)
