1 cup chopped onion
1 10-ounce package chopped frozen spinach, thawed, squeezed dry
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)

2 3/4 pounds button mushrooms (about 48; each about 1 1/2 inches in diameter), stemmed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Cook bacon in heavy large skillet until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Coarsely crumble bacon. Discard all but 1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons bacon fat (adding olive oil if necessary to equal that amount).

(Filled mushrooms can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
