Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or foil and set aside.

  4. 4

    Add fresh spinach and stir until cooked down and soft, about 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Add cream cheese and stir until thoroughly combined with spinach and mushroom mixture. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Gently stir in chopped parsley and all but two tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese. (Stir in Panko now if using.)

  7. 7

    Spoon filling into mushroom caps using a little less than a tablespoon of the filling mixture for each mushroom. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top of the mushrooms.

  8. 8

    Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until fork tender. Transfer to a serving tray and enjoy hot from the oven.
