Ingredients

• 4 large portobello mushroom caps
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
• 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Clean the portobello mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Remove the stems and gently scrape out the gills with a spoon. Brush both sides of the mushrooms with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
2. Make the Filling: In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the spinach leaves and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
3. Add Cheese: Once the spinach mixture is cool, stir in the crumbled feta cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese.
4. Stuff the Mushrooms: Spoon the filling into each mushroom cap, pressing down gently to pack it in. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese over the top.
5. Grill the Mushrooms: Preheat the grill to medium heat. Place the stuffed mushrooms on the grill, stuffed side up. Close the lid and grill for about 8-10 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the mushrooms from the grill and garnish with chopped basil and parsley. Serve immediately.
