Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Clean the portabella mushroom caps by removing the stems and gently scraping out the gills with a spoon. Brush the caps lightly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and set them aside.
Finely chop the yellow onion, garlic cloves, red bell pepper, zucchini, and parsley.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Continue to sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat.
Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl. Add breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients thoroughly to form the stuffing.
Place the prepared mushroom caps on the baking sheet with the gill side up. Spoon the vegetable stuffing evenly into each mushroom cap, pressing it down gently with a spoon.
Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and the tops of the stuffing are golden brown.
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy as a main dish or a hearty appetizer!
