Wash or wipe mushrooms clean.  Remove and chop stems finely.  Scrape out gills.  Sauté onion and garlic until soft and tender.  Remove from heat and add the Ritz crackers, cheese, pepper to taste and melted butter.  Mix everything together well; if mixture is too dry, add more olive oil or butter.  Stuff each mushroom with the stuffing mixture and place in a baking dish (single layer).  Cover with foil bake 350° for 20 minutes, remove cover and bake 10 minutes longer until browned on top!  Enjoy!
