Ingredients

The following ingredients have 3 Servings
  • 8 portobello mushrooms, (stems removed)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 shallot, (thinly sliced)
  • 1 small red pepper, (chopped)
  • 3 cloves of garlic, (minced)
  • 1 (8 oz) bag of fresh spinach
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 8-10 slices of fontina cheese
  • fresh parsley for garnish

Instruction

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add shallots and peppers with salt and pepper, cooking until soft – about 5 minutes. Add in garlic and spinach, cooking until spinach wilts, then stir in smoked paprika and parmesan.
  • Remove spinach mixture from skillet and set aside in a bowl. Add remaining olive oil in skillet, then place mushrooms in the pan stem side down. Cook for 5-6 minutes, then flip. Cook for 5 minutes more, then fill each mushroom with an equal amount of the spinach mixture. Turn the heat under the skillet off, and heat the broiler in your oven.
  • Dizzle balsamic into pan and gently stir mushrooms to coat, then add a slice of fontina on top of each. Place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until cheese gets bubbly and melts. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley if desired and with crusty bread.
