Easy Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms
These stuffed mushrooms are the perfect blend of flavors that will have you saying, “Just one more!” Trust me; you won’t want to stop at just one!
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 lb large mushrooms
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- ½ cup cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a kick!)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (because why not?!)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This is where the magic happens!
- Gently clean your mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove their stems. You want them to be all dressed up and ready to party!
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Toss in the minced garlic and sauté for about one minute until fragrant. Watch out; it’s about to smell amazing!
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until it wilts down. This doesn’t take long, folks, so don’t wander off! Keep an eye on it.
- In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, cooked spinach, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix until everything is nicely combined. You might want to taste it, but don’t eat it all—it’s going inside the mushrooms!
- Stuff each mushroom cap generously with the cheese and spinach mixture. Fill them up like they’re going to a fancy gala!
- Arrange your stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle a little olive oil on top of each mushroom. It’s like giving them a nice spa treatment!
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender, and the tops are golden brown. The aroma will have everyone congregating in the kitchen, so prep yourself for the compliments!
Once they’re done, take them out and let them cool for a bit, or you’ll have some very excited taste testers on your hands! Serve warm and watch those hilarious faces light up as they take their first bite. Enjoy your culinary adventure with these Easy Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms!
