Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

Submitted by Boomette

"A recipe I took from the blog Two Peas and Their Pod. It's so yummy."

 

• Ready In: 25mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 2 portabella mushrooms
• balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1⁄4 onion, chopped
• 1 yellow pepper, roasted and chopped
• 2 roma tomatoes, chopped
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 1⁄4 cup breadcrumbs
• italian seasoning (I use a blend from Emeril)
• mozzarella cheese

directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Remove the stem and gills from the mushroom. I use a spoon to scoop them out.
2. Brush the mushrooms with balsamic vinegar.
3. Heat olive oil in a small saute pan. Add the onions and garlic. Cook until tender. Add in peppers. Cook until tender.
4. Add in tomatoes and spinach. Cook until spinach wilted and “cooked.”.
5. Divide the filling and stuff the mushrooms.
6. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on the top and add Italian seasoning. Top with cheese.
7. Place on a baking sheet and bake for about ten minutes or until the cheese is melted. (At the end, I put the oven to broil and let the cheese golden).

These were pretty tasty, and quite easy to put together. I had to use a roasted red pepper and chopped grape tomatoes, but made it as posted otherwise. I actually think it could have done without the breadcrumbs, or at least a lot less, and I would mix them in the spinach mixture before filling the mushrooms, since it didn't really blend in well. Thanks for sharing this!

Thanks for sharing this recipe BOOMETTE. I made a few times already, even my hubby likes it & trust me, he's a fussy one.

So wonderful! The melted cheese and Italian seasoning really pull everything together. Made using a red roasted pepper instead of yellow and felt that it brought quite a bit to the recipe, also used very fine bread crumbs that were mixed in to the fill just before stuffing. Would not change a thing and will be making again. Thanks for the post.
