Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully clean the portabella mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and gently scrape out the gills using a spoon to create space for the filling.
Brush the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them on a baking tray, gill-side up. Lightly season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sauté the diced red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and red onion for about 5 minutes, or until softened.
Add the minced garlic and chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the spinach wilts.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the Kalamata olives, feta cheese, fresh parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Divide the filling evenly among the mushroom caps, pressing gently to pack it in. Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs over the top of each stuffed mushroom.
Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
