CHEESE AND SPINACH STUFFED PORTOBELLOS



Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Portobellos image

"Here we take the elements of a vegetarian lasagna filling-ricotta, spinach and Parmesan cheese-and nestle them into roasted portobello mushroom caps. The recipe works best with very large portobello caps. . . Serve with a tossed salad and a whole-wheat dinner roll or spaghetti tossed with marinara sauce." Note: After making this dish, I have changed the recipe slightly from the original (increased it to 6 mushrooms from 4, added garlic and chives, then mozarella on top instead of parmesan. If you like spicy stuff, I would recommend adding a few crushed red pepper flakes to the marinara sauce. Recipe from Eating Well.

The recipe works best with very large portobello caps; if you can only find smaller ones, buy one or two extra and divide the filling among all the caps. Serve with a tossed salad and a whole-wheat dinner roll or spaghetti tossed with marinara sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right portobello mushrooms. Look for large, firm mushrooms with intact stems. Avoid any that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Clean the mushrooms thoroughly. Use a damp paper towel to wipe away any dirt or debris. Do not rinse the mushrooms under water, as this will make them soggy.
  • Remove the stems. Use a sharp knife to carefully remove the stems from the mushrooms. Be careful not to cut into the caps.
  • Prepare the stuffing. Combine the spinach, cheese, bread crumbs, and seasonings in a bowl. Mix well.
  • Stuff the mushrooms. Spoon the stuffing into the mushroom caps. Do not overstuff the mushrooms, or the stuffing will spill out during cooking.
  • Bake the mushrooms. Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the stuffing is heated through.
  • Serve immediately. Portobello mushrooms are best served hot. They can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish.
