   6                    Guavas
   1       tb           Oil
   1       c            Mushrooms -- chopped
   1       tb           Onion -- chopped
     1/2   c            Green olives -- chopped
   2       tb           Parsley -- chopped
   4       ts           Chopped fresh dill weed or
   1       t            Dried dill
     1/2   ts           Each salt and pepper
   1       tb           Sesame seeds

  To prepare the guavas for stuffing, cut a thin slice
  from the top of the guava.  With a melon ball scoop or
  small spoon, remove the seeds and set the guavas aside.
  
  Heat the oil in a skillet.  Add mushrooms, onion,
  green olives, herbs, salt and pepper; saute until
  vegetables are soft.  Remove the mixture from the
  flame; cool.  Stuff the guavas, filling them to the
  top.
  
  Place stuffed guavas in a baking dish just large
  enough to hold them and sprinkle sesame seeds over the
  guava tops.  Bake at 325 F. for 1 hour, or until the
  fruit is tender.  Serve hot.
