Spinach and Walnut Stuffed Mushrooms With Three Cheeses image

These are an elegant, well-seasoned appetizer for a special dinner, or as part of a light lunch with a salad - and they're not difficult to make. When salting to taste, be careful, as the feta cheese is very salty. The recipe halves easily, or it's fun to stuff the very large portabella caps for a change of pace.
