Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Clean the portabella mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and gills using a spoon to create space for the filling.
Brush the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on both sides. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper, then place them on the prepared baking sheet gill side up.
In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped artichoke hearts.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, cooked spinach and artichoke mixture, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Spoon the spinach and artichoke filling evenly into the mushroom caps, mounding it slightly.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the stuffed mushrooms.
Top each mushroom with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a main dish or appetizer and enjoy!
