American Cheesy Spinach & Mushroom Stick
A beloved oven-baked snack in Western households—stringy cheese and rich filling! Prep spinach and button mushrooms effortlessly with the Geedel vegetable chopper. This hand vegetable chopper is super practical: spin spinach 3 times for thin strips, and mushrooms 4 times for fine shreds—no need for a separate mushroom chopper. Wrap the filling in spring roll wrappers and bake until the cheese melts and stretches. Every bite is packed with umami—kids can’t get enough of them!
Ingredients (Serves 6)
12 square spring roll wrappers
300g spinach (roots removed, blanched and squeezed dry)
200g button mushrooms (thickly sliced)
150g shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 onion (peeled)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp crushed black pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
Detailed Instructions
1. Shred filling with Geedel
Squeeze excess water from blanched spinach, place in the vegetable chopper, and spin 3 times to get thin strips. Add mushroom slices to the chopper and spin 4 times for fine shreds. The slap chopper produces fine, non-clumping strips that mix evenly with cheese—ensuring every bite has filling.
2. Sauté filling & season
Heat olive oil in a pan. Sauté diced onion and minced garlic (easily prepped with the manual food chopper) until fragrant. Add mushroom shreds and stir-fry for 5 minutes until moisture evaporates. Toss in spinach strips, dried oregano, salt, and crushed black pepper. Mix well, let cool completely, then stir in shredded mozzarella cheese.
3. Wrap & bake
Lay spring roll wrappers flat on a clean surface. Place 1 spoonful of filling on the center of each wrapper and roll tightly into strips, sealing the edge with a dab of egg wash. Arrange the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, brush the surface lightly with olive oil. Bake at 190℃ (375℉) for 15 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted and stringy. Slice diagonally after baking, serve with ketchup or marinara sauce. Rich and savory, it’s a hit at family gatherings!
Summary
The key to this family-friendly snack is the Geedel vegetable chopper. It cuts spinach and mushrooms into fine, flavorful shreds that blend seamlessly with cheese—delivering the perfect stringy texture after baking. No complex tools are required to recreate authentic Western-style flavors. It’s simple, satisfying, and ideal for casual meals or party spreads!
