Frequently Asked Questions
A small white button or Baby Bella mushrooms. Especially for parties, the small mushrooms are so easy to handle. Use the stem in the stuffing for extra flavor.
Frozen spinach can replace fresh spinach. For every 1 pound of fresh spinach, equals 10 ounces of frozen.
Defrost the spinach in the fridge. It can take a few hours to defrost. Drain the spinach of excess liquid by either squeezing in a kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
Another option is to place the spinach in a mesh colander on top of another pan to catch the liquid. Cover the spinach with a piece of plastic wrap. Let it thaw overnight and squeeze the liquid out of the spinach.

Stuffed mushrooms are one of my husband's favorite appetizers. It's never crossed my mind to stuff them with spinach artichoke filling. That's a great idea, and it sounds so tasty. We'll have to try these instead of the usual crab filling. 🙂

It's taken me a bit of time to warm up to mushrooms again. I was a fan as a child, then something happened along the way. Now, I am integrating them into my diet more - they are so healthy for you. This recipe sounds and looks absolutely delicious.

Yum! I will definitely add this recipe to my collection! My whole family will love these. One daughter can't have mushrooms due to an intolerance, but she'll just put the filling in something else. Can't wait to try! Thanks!!
Eileen xo
That is great. Try a baked potato with the stuffing. Just don't use the stems, I would add more artichoke and spinach if there is a mushroom intolerance.
