Preparation:

Wipe mushrooms with a damp cloth. Remove and finely chop mushroom stems. In a small skillet, cook and stir ground beef until browned. Add chopped mushroom stems, salt, pepper and oregano. Saute 2 to 3 minutes until mushroom stems are tender. Drain and discard drippings. Stir in ketchup. Spoon about 1 tablespoon meat mixture on top of each toast round. Arrange toast rounds on ungreased baking sheet. Place 1 mushroom cap, rounded side up, on top of each toast round. Cut cheese into wedges large enough to cover mushroom but no larger than toast. Place 1 cheese wedge on top of each mushroom cap. Refrigerate. To serve, preheat oven to 350~F. Bake appetizers 10 to 15 minutes until cheese melts and meat mixture is hot. Arrange on a large platter; serve hot.
