Spinach Feta Stuffed Mushrooms With Walnuts Recipes

FETA AND SPINACH STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• If your mushrooms caps are very rounded, trim a very thin slice from the top of the caps to help them sit upright for baking. Toss the mushroom caps with the olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until just soft and wilted, 6 to 8 minutes. Scrape into a large bowl, season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and set aside to cool.
• Add the feta and basil to the cooled mushroom stem mixture. Stir in the breadcrumbs until well moistened.
• Pack each mushroom with an equal amount of filling and transfer the filled mushrooms to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is brown and crispy on top, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheet.

SPINACH-STUFFED FLOUNDER WITH MUSHROOMS AND FETA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spray an unheated medium skillet with no-stick spray. Heat the skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook about 5 minutes or until the liquid released from the mushrooms has evaporated, stirring occasionally.
• Add the spinach to the skillet. Cook and stir about 2 minutes or until spinach is wilted. Remove from the heat and drain excess moisture. Sprinkle the feta cheese over the vegetables, then stir it in.
• To assemble the fish rolls, place one-quarter of the spinach mixture onto the wide end of each filet. Carefully roll the filet around the spinach mixture. Use wooden toothpicks to hold the end of each roll in place.
• Spray an 8x8 inch baking dish with non-stick spray. Place the fish rolls, seam side down, in the baking dish. Add 2 tablespoons of water. Loosely cover with foil.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and is opaque all the way through.

SPINACH FETA STUFFED MUSHROOMS WITH WALNUTS

Steps:

• First, preheat oven to 375°F.

• While they're baking, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium sized saute pan over then add the chopped onions... Saute on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Then add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute.
• Stir in the spinach, feta, cream cheese, walnuts, chicken stock, thyme, parsley, and salt and pepper, and cook until everything is blended - together about 5 minutes.
• Turn the mushrooms over on the baking sheet. Spoon 1 generous tablespoon of the spinach filling into each mushroom cavity. (Filled mushrooms can be prepared 1 day ahead... just cover the baking sheet and refrigerate.)
• Sprinkle the mushrooms with Parmesan cheese and bake until heated through, about 10-15 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a platter, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve warm.
