Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 6 large Portobello mushroom caps, stems and gills removed
- 1 lb Italian sausage (mild or hot)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Prep Mushrooms: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment. Clean the mushroom caps and remove stems and gills. Brush with olive oil, season lightly, and place gill-side up.
- Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until mostly browned.
- Add Aromatics: Add diced onion and garlic. Cook 3–4 minutes until softened.
- Add Spinach: Stir in chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat and fold in Parmesan.
- Stuff Mushrooms: Spoon filling into each mushroom cap and top with shredded mozzarella.
- Bake: Bake 20–25 minutes until mushrooms are tender and cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Serve: Garnish with parsley and serve warm.
Notes
- Remove mushroom gills to prevent sogginess.
- Prebake extra-large mushroom caps 8 minutes to release moisture.
- Try ground beef, turkey, chicken, or plant-based crumbles as alternatives.
- Add cauliflower rice or quinoa for keto or vegetarian versions.
- Leftover filling works great in pasta dishes or stir-fries.
