Ingredients

  • 12 baby portobello mushrooms (about 2" wide)
  • 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups spinach, fresh, chopped
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese, fat free
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, fat free, room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese, low-fat, shredded
  • 2 teaspoons Parmesan cheese, fat-free
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

How To Make hg four-cheese stuffed-silly mushrooms

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Gently remove the stems from the mushrooms & set both the caps & the stems aside.
  • Step 2
    Lightly spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray. Place the mushroom caps on the sheet, rounded sides down. Bake in the oven for 12 - 14 minutes. (Afterward, do not turn the oven off.)
  • Step 3
    Meanwhile, chop mushroom stems. Bring a large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat on the stove. Add onion, chopped mushroom stems, & chopped garlic. Cook & stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Add spinach & continue to cook & stir until wilted. Set aside. If needed, pat dry.
  • Step 4
    Once the mushroom caps are cool enough to handle, pat them dry until free of all excess moisture.
  • Step 5
    In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, cream cheese, nutmeg, salt & mozzarella cheese. Mix well. Add the cooked veggie mixture & stir until blended.
  • Step 6
    Evenly distribute the cheese-veggie mixture among the mushroom caps. They will be super-stuffed & the mixture will be piled on top, too!
  • Step 7
    In a small bowl, mix Parm-style topping with garlic powder. Sprinkle the stuffed mushrooms with this mixture.
  • Step 8
    Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the oven for 8 - 10 minutes, until the topping begins to brown. Let cool slightly & enjoy!!!
