Ingredients
  

  • 4 large Portobello mushroom caps cleaned and stems removed
  • 2 cups fresh spinach chopped
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup cream cheese softened
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano optional
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Equipment

  • Baking sheet or roasting pan
  • Parchment paper or foil
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon for filling
  • Skillet (optional for sautéing)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment so cleanup’s easy.
  2. Pull the stems off the mushrooms and scrape out the gills; brush the caps with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Lay the mushrooms on the baking sheet, gill side up.
  4. In a bowl, mix together the chopped spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, and oregano until it’s all smooth and creamy.
  5. Spoon the filling into each mushroom cap and press it down a bit so it stays put.
  6. Bake them for about 18–20 minutes, until the tops are golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  7. Let them sit for about 5 minutes so they’re not scorching hot.
  8. Add a little fresh parsley on top if you want, then dig in.
