Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Brush the portobello mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Place them gill-side up on the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, chopped parsley, garlic powder, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Set aside.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and breadcrumbs. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and transfer to a small bowl.
Once the mushrooms are roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Begin assembling by spreading a layer of the cream cheese mixture onto two of the mushroom caps.
Add a layer of the sautéed spinach on top of the cream cheese. Stack the remaining two mushroom caps on top to create 'mountains.'
Sprinkle the crispy breadcrumb mixture over the top of each mushroom stack.
Drizzle with balsamic glaze and serve warm. Enjoy your Mushroom Mountain!
