Prep Time: 10 minutes         Cook Time: 20-25 minutes

Yield: 4 servings       Serving Size: 3 stuffed mushrooms

Ingredients:

  • 12 large button or portobello mushrooms, stems removed and finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup whole-wheat breadcrumbs 
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 
  • 1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt 
  • 2 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Lemon zest, chopped parsley and parmesan shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. Lightly coat the mushroom caps with olive oil and arrange them on a baking sheet with the gill side facing up.
  3. In a pan over medium heat, warm olive oil. Sauté diced onion and garlic for about 5 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add the chopped mushroom stems and spinach, cooking until the spinach wilts. Stir in breadcrumbs, Greek yogurt, Parmesan (if using), parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  4. Fill each mushroom cap with the prepared mixture.
  5. Bake the stuffed mushrooms for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the mushrooms are tender.
  6. Garnish with lemon zest, fresh parsley, and Parmesan shavings before serving.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Try crumbled feta or goat cheese for a tangier twist.
  • Pre-bake the caps for 5-7 minutes to release excess water, then pat them dry before stuffing.
