Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms are bite-sized treats that pop with flavor when you give them a bite. A double whammy of cheesy goodness from smooth cream cheese and mozzarella cheese. They get an extra bonus of zing from artichokes in the stuffing.
Even better, they are low- fat and better for your choice for an appetizer.
These spinach stuffed mushrooms can be prepped ahead of time and baked right before serving.
Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms
The mushrooms are perfect for Mother’s Day, Christmas, tailgates, any holiday! A great way to add a vegetarian treat for your family and friends.
Best Mushrooms for Stuffing
Use 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.
How do I clean mushrooms?
Use a paper towel or napkin to wipe the mushrooms clean and don’t forget to clean the stems. I have a lot of great info about cleaning and storing mushrooms as well as the nutrients in mushrooms in my Easy Sauteed Mushrooms Recipe.
For very specific information on mushrooms, check the USDA National Agricultural Library for details.
Can I use frozen spinach in this recipe?
Frozen spinach can replace fresh spinach. For every 1 pound of fresh spinach equals 10 ounces of frozen.
If using frozen spinach, how do I prepare it for the stuffing?
- 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 to squeeze the liquid out of spinach.
Can the stuffed mushrooms be made ahead of time?
Absolutely, make them one day ahead. Follow the instructions to bake them and serve.
How long can the stuffed mushrooms keep in the fridge after they bake?
Keep the stuffed mushrooms in an airtight container for about 3 days.
Can I freeze spinach stuffed mushrooms?
I’m not a fan. Mushrooms retain a lot of water. When we made an attempt to freeze, the texture of the mushroom can change. I do not encourage freezing these mushrooms.
Variations to use for these spinach stuffed mushrooms:
Use other leafy veggies such as kale, escarole, or swiss chard in lieu of the spinach as part of the stuffing. Also feel free to try other cheese in the recipe such as Fontina, Gruyere, cheddar, or brie.

How to make Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Mushrooms
- Clean the mushrooms using a moist paper towel and remove and chop the stems and set aside to be used to add in the filling. Brush olive oil on the bottom of mushroom caps, set aside.
- Over medium heat in a saute pan add the unsalted butter, garlic, chopped mushroom stems, and spinach and saute for about 5 minutes.
- Turn heat off or remove from the heat source, add to the pan the sliced artichokes, low-fat cheeses, and panko breadcrumbs.
- Combine the filling flavors into the cleaned mushrooms. Bake the spinach artichoke stuffed mushrooms for about 15 minutes.
- The cheese will be melted and the mushroom soft. Serve immediately!

Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Mushrooms
Ingredients
- 10 ounce small white mushrooms, about 15 mushrooms
- 1/2 teaspoon unsalted butter
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
- 3 cups baby spinach or 10-ounce frozen spinach see note 1
- 1/2 cup marinated artichokes hearts, diced drain the liquid
- 2 ounce reduced-fat cream cheese
- 1/2 cup skim milk mozzarella, shredded
- 3 Tablespoons Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Clean the mushrooms, including the stem by wiping them with a paper towel.
- Remove the stems from the mushrooms and dice them into small pieces and set aside.
- In a skillet, over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and add the minced garlic, diced mushroom stems, and the baby spinach. Saute for about 5 minutes to cook lightly brown the garlic and mushroom stems and to wilt the spinach.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Add the diced artichokes, cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, and panko breadcrumbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the olive oil in a small bowl, use a pastry brush to dip into the olive oil and coat the mushroom caps lightly with the olive oil. Then place the mushrooms on a cookie sheet.
- Use a teaspoon to fill each mushroom cap, press filling inside the cavity of the mushroom. Usually, about 2 teaspoons of the filling will fill the mushroom.
- When all mushrooms are filled, place the cookie sheet in the oven for about 15 minutes until mushrooms are golden brown and cheese is melted.
Notes
- If using frozen spinach, it must be defrosted and excess fluid drained before proceeding with the recipe.
- The filling can be made ahead 2 days and keep tightly covered in the fridge.
- If prepping the entire stuffed mushroom, keep in an airtight container until ready to bake. No more than 2 days.

Such an easy recipe and I love that it is a ‘lightened’ up alternative snack. Perfect for parties and no one would even know they were eating a bit healthier 🙂
I LOVE mushrooms but I never think to stuff them! This spinach and artichoke version is inspiring me to change that right away. Delicious!
OMG it’s like spinach artichoke dip in a mushroom! I love this. Stuffed mushrooms are so good. This one looks pretty healthy, so I could eat a bunch without feeling too guilty 🙂 I’m definitely going to have to give this a try

Awesome Amy! I hope you enjoy the stuffed mushrooms as much as my family!
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. 🙂
Thank you Kim! These are yummy! I hope you enjoy!
I would love to serve these at my next tapas party! If there is any leftover filling I would be scooping that up with some chips too!
I love the idea of using the filling with chips too!
Cream Cheese stuffed in mushrooms takes this recipe to another level. So creamy and full of simple flavors. Thanks for the recipe.

I am loving the artichokes.. I am not such a big fan of it, but this looks so awesomely delicious way to incorporate into my meal
I hope you try it out!
These look seriously amazing! And it is a combination I would never think of, although I’m not sure why. I love stuffed mushrooms and I love artichokes. I might try and make these for football next weekend 🙂
These would be great for a football party. Make ahead and enjoy a low calorie snack
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.
That is great. Mushrooms have always been a favorite for me. The stuffing is so tasty!
Wow, this looks really yummy. Adding this to my list since I’m on a healthy kick.
Great, these would be great for Super Bowl. Lower in calories and still yummy
OMGosh .. I love mushrooms. This looks absolutely amazing
Thank you! Hope you try these
No really a mushroom person, but spinach and artichoke dip is one of my favorite foods, so these might be worth trying. Thanks.
My older daughter so not a mushroom fan. She loves these. The stuffing is the major taste. Hope you try!
Mmmmm this would be a good idea in potato skins! Mix up all the ingredients and use in hollowed out potatoes! You got my mind thinking on this one, thanks!
I so agree, I have made this same suggestion to others. Many possibilities with this, thank youu for the kind comments and hope you enjoy
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!!
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.
Those look delicious and so easy to make! I have pinned it for future reference, can’t wait to try it out!
I am so glad you like the recipe. Let me know how yours turn out!
Those look delicious and they’re so easy to make. I think they’d be perfect for a party, don’t you?

Thank you , going forward it would be a good one for Super Bowl. To keep calories in check. I hope you enjoy
I don’t like stuffed mushrooms because of the mushroom part but my husband loves them. I’ll definitely be passing this recipe along to him!
