Ingredients

• 4 large caps portabella mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, diced yellow onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 6 cups baby spinach
• 1 15-ounce can, drained and rinsed cannellini beans
• 0.5 cup vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Remove the stems from the portabella mushrooms and gently scrape out the gills with a spoon. Wipe the caps clean with a damp paper towel.

Step 3

Brush the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on both sides and place them gill-side up on a baking sheet. Bake them for 10 minutes, then set aside.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 6

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the baby spinach to the skillet, stirring until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Stir in the cannellini beans, vegetable broth, soy sauce, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the liquid to reduce slightly.

Step 9

Spoon the spinach and bean mixture evenly over each baked mushroom cap.

Step 10

Return the mushrooms to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is heated through.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
