Cook artichoke hearts as directed on package. Place in a flat, buttered
casserole. Cover with sauteed mushrooms. Cook oysters in their liquid until
edges begin to curl. Drain thoroughly in colander, reserving liquid. Melt
butter and sautee onion until tender; add parsley and cook a minute. Add
flour, stirring until smooth. Add enough white wine to oyster liquid to
make 1 1/2 cups. Add seasonings and stir constantly until thick. Add
oysters and spoon mixture over artichokes and mushrooms. Arrange lemon

10 minutes or until bubbling. Mrs. Maynard C. Nicholl
