🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 16 pieces Large button or cremini mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 cups Fresh spinach
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.33 cup Walnuts, chopped
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.33 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

2. Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Carefully remove the stems and set the caps aside. Finely chop the stems and reserve them for the filling.

3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

4. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.

5. Stir in the chopped walnuts, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and half of the mozzarella cheese. Mix until well combined and creamy.

6. Season the filling with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.

7. Stuff each mushroom cap with a generous amount of the spinach and cheese filling. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet.

8. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the stuffed mushrooms, followed by the remaining mozzarella cheese.

9. Bake the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the topping is golden brown.

10. Remove from the oven and let the mushrooms cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
