Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound cremini mushrooms, halved and thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 ounces chopped frozen spinach, thawed in microwave 4 minutes, all liquid squeezed
6 ounces Asiago, shredded (about 2 cups)
1 large egg, beaten
Whole-grain mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and then the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are a rich golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl and cool slightly.
  • 2. Add the spinach, cheese and egg to the mushrooms and stir together to combine; it's nice if there are pockets of cheese in the mixture.
  • 3. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Using a 1/4 cup dry measuring cup as a mold, tightly pack some of the mixture into the cup to make a cake. Tap the cake out of the cup on to the prepared pan. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make 8 cakes. Bake until the cheese is golden, about 12 minutes. Serve hot with whole-grain mustard.

These cakes were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I loved these cakes! The spinach and cheese really balanced out the flavor of the mushrooms.

I had a hard time getting the cakes to hold together. I think I might have added too much liquid. Other than that, they were delicious.

These cakes were a little too cheesy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I would probably use less cheese next time.

These cheesy mushroom spinach cakes were a hit with my family! They were easy to make and packed with flavor. I especially loved the crispy outer layer and the gooey cheese filling.
