10-minute Spinach Artichoke Mushroom Cap

Share the love :)

These spinach and artichoke stuffed mushroom caps are a savory and creamy treat perfect for a light dinner alongside a savory arugula salad.

I decided to make my simple 10-minute Spinach Artichoke Mushroom Cap for dinner a couple of nights this past week. Paired with an arugula salad, it’s not only healthy but light on the belly as well.

I first scoop the “gills” out of the cap. I just use a spoon to scrape them gently out. I then rub the top of the cap with a dry paper towel, just to clean the mushroom a little.

I then add a little cooked frozen spinach to the “base” of the mushroom.

Next I drain and chop a handful of canned artichokes and add that over the spinach.

A small sprinkling of parmesan and your ‘shroom is ready for the 3-minute broiler. It’s important not to leave the mushroom cap in the oven for too long as the mushroom will shrink the more it cooks. But the spinach has cooked the cap a little bit, you really just want to broil it until the cheese begins to melt.

This is when I mix up the arugula with a bit of a balsamic vinaigrette.
