Ingredients

Scale

Mushrooms

  • 4 large portabella mushrooms
  • 2 tsp olive oil

Stuffing

  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp Italian herbs (oregano and basil)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the mushrooms evenly.
  2. Prepare Mushrooms: Clean the portabella mushrooms with a damp cloth. Remove the stems carefully and use a spoon to scrape out the gills to make room for the stuffing.
  3. Sauté Spinach and Garlic: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped spinach and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the spinach has wilted.
  4. Mix Stuffing: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the sautéed spinach and garlic mixture, grated Parmesan cheese, seasoned breadcrumbs, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  5. Stuff Mushrooms: Generously fill each mushroom cap with the prepared stuffing mixture, spreading it evenly across the surface.
  6. Bake: Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the filling is cooked through.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream cheese with vegan cream cheese for a vegan option.
  • To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free breadcrumbs.
  • Ensure mushrooms are well cleaned but don’t soak them as they can become soggy.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle some extra Parmesan cheese on top before baking.
  • Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish with your favorite main course.
