Ingredients

12 large fresh mushrooms (cremini or button work wonderfully)

2 cups fresh spinach, finely chopped

1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon butter

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Mushrooms

Gently twist or scoop out the stems from the mushrooms to create a hollow center. Finely chop the stems using the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater’s 2-Blade Set for a quick, uniform texture. Wipe the mushroom caps with a damp cloth to keep them clean and ready.

Sauté the Filling

Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped mushroom stems, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until aromatic. Toss in the finely chopped spinach (prepared with the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater’s fine shredding option) and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme for added depth.

Mix the Stuffing

Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, grated effortlessly with the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater, and breadcrumbs until well blended. This creates a rich, cohesive filling that holds its shape perfectly.

Stuff and Bake

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Generously fill each mushroom cap with the spinach mixture, pressing it down lightly. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops turn golden brown.

Serve and Enjoy

Allow the mushrooms to cool for a few minutes before serving. Add a sprinkle of extra Parmesan or fresh herbs if you like. They shine as an appetizer, a side dish, or even a light main course!

Tips for Perfection

Add a dash of red pepper flakes for a spicy twist.

Use the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater to finely shred spinach and stems for a smoother fill.

Pair with a fresh salad or a glass of white wine for a complete experience.
