What You’ll Need to Make Spinach and Feta Stuffed Mushrooms

  • 12 large mushroom caps (cremini or white mushrooms work best)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

How to Make Spinach and Feta Stuffed Mushrooms

  1. Prep the mushrooms: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Clean the mushroom caps by wiping them with a damp cloth and removing the stems. Set the caps aside and finely chop the stems.
  2. Sauté the spinach: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Mix the filling: In a bowl, combine the spinach mixture with the feta cheese, breadcrumbs, and Parmesan. Stir until everything is well combined.
  4. Stuff the mushrooms: Spoon the spinach and feta mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing it down lightly to pack the filling in.
  5. Bake the mushrooms: Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
  6. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve hot!
