Ingredients

Salt

to taste

Black pepper

to taste

Olive oil

2 tablespoons

Garlic

2 cloves, minced

Feta cheese

1 cup, crumbled

Spinach

2 cups, fresh

Large mushrooms

12, stems removed

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the mushrooms by removing the stems and setting them aside for later use.
3. Warm up the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté until it releases its aroma.
4. Chop the mushroom stems and add them to the skillet along with the fresh spinach. Continue cooking until the spinach wilts and any excess moisture evaporates. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
5. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the mixture cool down a bit.
6. In a separate bowl, combine the cooled spinach and mushroom mixture with the crumbled feta cheese. Season with salt and pepper according to your preference.
7. Carefully fill each mushroom cap with the spinach and feta mixture, gently pressing it down to secure.
8. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. The mushrooms should be tender and the filling should turn a beautiful golden brown color.
9. Serve these delicious stuffed mushrooms hot, and enjoy the Mediterranean flavors!
