Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms image

Portobello mushrooms are a great option for a vegan or vegetarian main course, because they are large enough to fill a plate, and can be stuffed with a variety of flavors. For reader Dianne Wenz of West Orange, small stuffed mushrooms were always a holiday side dish -- until the year she decided not to serve them. "I didn't make them one year, thinking no one would notice, but my dinner guests were disappointed that they were missing from the holiday table," said Ms. Wenz. "To make up for it, the following year I made jumbo portobellos stuffed with beans, spinach, and I made them the star attraction of the meal."

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided
2 medium-sized shallots, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
2 cups spinach, chopped and tightly packed
1/4 cup vegetable or mushroom broth
1 1/2 cups cooked cannellini beans
2 tablespoons flat-leaved parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs, plus more if desired
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast, plus more if desired

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the mushroom caps on it, upside down. Whisk together 3 teaspoons olive oil with the balsamic vinegar, ¼ teaspoon sea salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Brush the mushrooms with the mixture and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until tender.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat remaining olive oil and cook the shallots for 5 minutes, until beginning to brown. Add the garlic and rosemary and cook for another minute or two. Stir in the spinach and broth. Remove from heat as soon as the spinach begins to wilt.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the shallot-spinach mixture, beans, parsley, breadcrumbs, nutritional yeast and the remaining sea salt and pepper. Divide the mixture among the mushrooms. Sprinkle the tops with some extra breadcrumbs and nutritional yeast for more crunch, if desired. Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until heated throughout. Serve hot.
