Ingredients
- 4 large pieces Portabella mushroom caps
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 medium-sized, diced Red bell pepper
- 4 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup, shredded Mozzarella cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Clean the portabella mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel and removing the stems. Scoop out the gills with a spoon to create room for the filling.
Step 3
Brush the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet gill-side up. Set aside.
Step 4
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the diced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Step 6
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Step 7
In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 8
Stir the cooked spinach and red bell pepper mixture into the cheese mixture until evenly distributed.
Step 9
Spoon the stuffing mixture evenly into each of the prepared mushroom caps, gently packing it down.
Step 10
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of each stuffed mushroom for a melty finish.
Step 11
Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mozzarella cheese is golden and bubbly, and the mushrooms are tender.
Step 12
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your vegetarian Red Bell Pepper Spinach Stuffed Portabellas!
