This makes a hearty breakfast and/or a good side for a creamy pasta dish. It could be looked at as a retake of the Egg McMuffin. Low carb and full of vegetables. The egg yolk makes a yummy sauce that brings it all together. DDP1.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

The flavors in the layers of this stuffed portabella are amazing. The beefy mushroom topped with Canadian bacon makes this recipe very hearty. Stuffed with wilted spinach, savory cheese, and Italian seasoning, the combination of flavors is heavenly. Our favorite part was the egg on top. We cooked ours to have a runny yolk that made an amazing sauce once broken into. If you like your eggs a little firmer, prepare them that way. It's up to you! Individually, these layers are good but together they are a yummy breakfast for brunch. This is something you'd find on the menu at a fancy brunch. The Test Kitchen

How to Make Stuffed Portabella Caps

Step-by-Step

Preheat over to 450 F. With a spoon scrape out the gills of each cap. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake caps side up, in a dish sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 20 minutes or until tender.
Remove the larger stems from the baby spinach leaves.
In a non-stick pan heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil and cook spinach until wilted.
Sprinkle garlic and onion powder and stir. Set aside.
Mix the cheeses and Italian seasonings together.
Place one piece of Canadian bacon inside each cap.
Add spinach mixture and finally the cheese blend.
Return to oven and cook until the cheese has melted.
Meanwhile, cook egg sunny side up or poached.
Place each egg on top of each cap. Season with salt and pepper.
