Ingredients

  • 12 medium-large cremini mushrooms (baby portobellos) approx. 12-14 ounces total
  • 1 TBSP unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2.5-3 cups fresh baby spinach (packed)
  • 4 oz cream cheese (cut into 6-8 cubes)
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ tsp dried basil
  • ¼ tsp salt or to taste
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper
  • ⅛ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 TBSP panko breadcrumbs (skip for gluten-free + keto)
  • 2 TBSP freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Prefer not to line it? Spritz it with oil and you're good to go.
  2. Clean mushrooms by dusting off the caps with a paper towel and remove the stems. Place mushroom tops on your baking sheet and set aside.
  3. Mince the mushroom stems and garlic.
  4. Melt butter in a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat and add your minced mushrooms and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes then add the spinach. 
  5. Once the spinach has wilted, add cream cheese, basil, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and stir it all up until the cream cheese has melted. Fold in 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese and remove from heat.
  6. Combine 2 TBSP panko breadcrumbs with 2 TBSP grated parm. 
  7. Spoon spinach mixture into each mushroom cap then sprinkle each with the parm/panko mixture.
  8. Bake at 375 F for approx. 15 minutes or until filling is hot and melty and the mushrooms are deliciously tender. Dive in while they're hot!

Notes

  • For a vibrant and flavorful garnish, feel free to add fresh chopped chives or parsley on top!
  • We've had good luck with making these a few hours ahead of time and keeping them tightly wrapped on a baking sheet or plate in the fridge before baking. If prepping these ahead of time, simply add the panko/parm topping just before baking. The chilled mushrooms will take a little longer to bake, approx. 20-25 minutes.
