Jump to Recipe Pin Recipe

Filled with a combination of garlic-sautéed spinach and sun-dried tomatoes, and topped with grated Asiago cheese before baking, these stuffed mushrooms are light, flavorful, and the perfect starter before a hearty meal. Because this appetizer is so simple to prepare and can be made in advance, we find it to be a good choice when planning a meal for guests.

Spinach Stuffed Mushroom Recipe Ingredients

In addition to pantry staples like garlic and olive oil, you’ll need the following special ingredients to make this recipe:

  • Cremini (aka baby portobello) or white button mushrooms: Choose relatively uniform mushrooms to ensure even cooking and an attractive presentation.
  • Dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes: This type is easier to mince than the oil-packed tomatoes, and they’ll plump up as they absorb extra liquid from the spinach.
  • Asiago cheese: This flavorful, Italian, cow’s milk cheese grates easily and melts nicely, so it’s perfect for this appetizer. Fontina would be an acceptable substitute.

Ingredients 

  • 12 cremini, baby portobello mushrooms, brushed clean, stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, sliced
  • 5 ounces baby spinach leaves, roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, minced
  • 1/2 cup Asiago cheese, finely grated

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and coat a shallow baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  • Arrange the mushroom caps on the prepared sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, 1 to 1-1/2 minutes
  • Remove the garlic with a slotted spoon, then return the pan to the stove over medium-high heat.
  • Add the spinach and sauté until wilted, tossing constantly with tongs, 2 minutes.
  • Season lightly with salt and pepper, remove the pan from the heat and drain any liquid that may have accumulated.
  • Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and set aside to cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Using a small spoon (or your fingers), fill the mushroom caps with the spinach mixture, then top with each with cheese.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
