Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, one turn of the pan
- 24 large gourmet stuffing mushroom caps, stems removed and reserved brushed with damp towel
- Salt and pepper
Stuffing:
- 1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, half a turn of the pan
- 3/4 pound sweet bulk Italian sausage
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 20 stems mushrooms, finely chopped
- 1 rib of celery and green, leafy top from the heart of the stalk, chopped
- 1/2 small onion, chopped
- 1/2 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 (10-ounce) box chopped frozen spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
- 3 slices white bread, toasted and buttered, chopped into small dice
- 1/3 cup grated Parmigiano or Romano, 2 handfuls
Directions
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and mushroom caps and season caps with salt and pepper. Saute caps 5 to 7 minutes, until they are lightly browned and tender on edges. Turn caps up and let juices drain away from caps. Transfer caps to a small nonstick baking sheet. Wipe out skillet and return to heat. Add a touch of oil and sausage to the hot skillet. Brown and crumble sausage for 3 minutes. In a food processor pulse and chop the garlic, add mushroom stems and pulse to chop the mushroom stems. Add celery, onion and red bell pepper to the mushrooms and pulse to chop. Remove mixture from the processor and saute veggies and mushrooms over medium high heat another 3 to 5 minutes. Add dry, defrosted spinach and stir into stuffing. Add chopped bread and cheese to the pan and toss stuffing until bread is moist and stuffing is combined, 2 or 3 minutes. Fill caps with stuffing using a small scoop or large spoon. Place caps in hot oven and reduce heat to 450 degrees F. Bake 6 to 8 minutes to crisp edges of stuffing and set stuffing in mushrooms. Transfer stuffed mushrooms to a serving plate.

Very good! I used fresh spinach and german sausage because these were already purchased. I had a lot of stuffing left over so my college boys used it in breakfast burritos and I used it to stuff pork chops. The stuffed pork shops were exellent, especially cold.

Extremely tasty! I added a pit more Parmesan cheese and I didn't have white bread so I used wheat and served them at Thanksgiving dinner as an appetizer... they were a hit! Some family members that don't even eat mushrooms loved them! I also think if you don't have sweet Italian sausage that ground turkey would be perfect with this and would be easier to manage than the sausage but over all this is a wonderful recipe can't wait to make them again.
