(*Friday Menu will be back next Friday, and it will be an updated and fresh menu.)
I decided to bring over one of my specialties for this festive day.
Stuffed Spinach Mushrooms
Ingredients:
- 10 white mushrooms, clean
- 1 bunch of green onions diced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 bunch of basil diced
- 1 bunch of parsley diced
- 2-3 cloves of garlic minced
- 1 cup cooked spinach
- 1/4 cup of red wine
- 1/2 cup of sour cream
- 1 egg beaten
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- 2 teaspoons mint
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt & ground pepper to taste
Directions:
- First clean the mushrooms and then spoon out the core of the mushroom.
- Keep the core of the mushrooms in a bowl, dice them and set aside. Once all the mushrooms are cleaned out, place each mushroom on a baking sheet lined with foil.
- In a medium saucepan, add the olive oil, onion, and garlic over medium heat.
- Cook for about 3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
- Add the diced mushrooms to the pan, and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add spinach, and red wine and cook until liquid is dissolved.
- In a medium size bowl, mix the sour cream, egg, oregano, mint, cheese, and seasonings. (Set aside.)
- Add the spinach mixture to the cream mixture and stir well to combine.
- Fill each mushroom with the filling.
- Place in oven at 350 degrees or 180 Celsius, and bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Serve with fresh mint or parsley on top.
Kali Orexi, & Happy Fiesta Friday!

Hi Juilanna,
Great to see another chef on here. 🙂 I am happy to hear that you like my recipe, and I always try to come up with new stuffed mushroom recipes. I usually wrap bacon around my mushrooms but this time I kept this recipe all vegetarian. Please let me know if you try this, and your thoughts. Happy cooking, and happy weekend to you.

Love the idea of adding mint! Combined with the other herbs and garlic, that must be one flavory mushroom!
Kouzounas Kitchen
Hi Sabine,
Yes the mint adds a wonderful touch to these delicate appetizers. You should try this recipe out and let me know your thoughts. 🙂 Have a great weekend.
