Cyg, what the hell is a "mock oyster"? 
A yummy recipe you MUST try if you like oysters. You'll need:
1 medium onion, finely chopped.
1 stick of butter or margarine
1 10 &3/4 ounce can cream of mushroom soup
1 package garlic cheese (Kraft)
1 10 ounce box of chopped broccoli
1 4 ounce can of chopped mushrooms
and enough milk to fill up that can of cream of mushroom soup - otherwise, the dip will be too thick.
Melt butter and sautee' onions. While you're doing that - toss the cream of mushroom soup, chopped mushrooms, milk & cheese into a medium sized sauce pan and allow the cheese to melt. Cook broccoli, microwave method is easiest. Once everything is heated up and the cheese is melted - combine everything and mix well. Sever with cubed French bread or crackers. For even more yumness - thin the dip with a little more milk and serve over pasta.

Re: Culinary Genius, or Just Recipes
Yeah, but then I wouldn't have been able to make my doctor joke. 
It's no big. I just saw the recipe in Who Are You? and thought I'd add it to the list here, for ease of reference.

Re: Culinary Genius, or Just Recipes
 OK, in honor of the winter desire to eat rich warm food, and the ongoing desire to not get any fatter, I came up with this (brilliant if I say so myself **shines nails on chef's jacket**)
(Made with Weight Watcher's Recipe Builder)
Lasagna
POINTS® value per serving | 5
Servings | 10
Note: use fresh mozzarella if you can - its lighter, and really delicious
Ingredients
9 dry lasagna noodles
15 oz fat-free ricotta cheese
8 oz Fresh mozzarella (or reduced fat)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 jar Marinara sauce, store-bought
1/2 bag of spinach
1/2 cup Egg Beaters
2 tsp olive oil
12 oz mushroom(s)
1 clove garlic clove(s)
1 cup zucchini
Instructions
•Brown the garlic and mushrooms in the olive oil.
• Slice and cook the zuchini for 3 minutes in the microwave.
•Pour 1/2 cup sauce on the bottom of a 10 x 13" pan
• Layer with 3 peices uncooked pasta
•Mix ricotta, grated mozzarella, parmesan, salt and pepper
•Spread 1/2 of cheese on top of pasta, then layer with spinach leaves
•add another layer of pasta.
•add more sauce and sprinkle with mushrooms or beef
•add a layer of cheese and one more noodle layer
•top with sauce, cover tightly with foil and bake on hour at 375
Sprinkle with Parmesan, cut into 10 portions
Now, some of you might cringe at the thought of fat-free ricotta cheese, but once everything was combined the effect was lucious and creamy.
Substitute 12 oz browned ground beef for the zuchini & mushrooms and it’s 7 pts per serving. And these are not tiny servings.
Actually I made it this way, so my veggie-phobic 
housemate would eat it! It was goooooood.
**rubs happy belly**
