Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray
4 6-inch portobello mushroom caps
4 cups spinach, chopped
1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 shallots (1 finely chopped, 1 thinly sliced)
1 large tomato, diced
3 tablespoons grated pecorino romano cheese, plus shaved pecorino for topping
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
4 stalks celery, peeled and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Mist a foil-lined broiler pan with cooking spray. Put the mushrooms gill-side down on the pan; broil 5 minutes.

  • Remove the mushrooms from the broiler and turn them gill-side up on the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Mound the spinach filling on the mushrooms and top with the ricotta. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon pecorino and broil until the filling is heated through and the ricotta is lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

CHEESE AND SPINACH STUFFED PORTOBELLOS



Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Portobellos image

"Here we take the elements of a vegetarian lasagna filling-ricotta, spinach and Parmesan cheese-and nestle them into roasted portobello mushroom caps. The recipe works best with very large portobello caps. . . Serve with a tossed salad and a whole-wheat dinner roll or spaghetti tossed with marinara sauce." Note: After making this dish, I have changed the recipe slightly from the original (increased it to 6 mushrooms from 4, added garlic and chives, then mozarella on top instead of parmesan. If you like spicy stuff, I would recommend adding a few crushed red pepper flakes to the marinara sauce. Recipe from Eating Well.
