Mush! Mush!

Sorry... with all of this snow I am left thinking of huskies running in the snow.. MUSH! So, here's another goody, low carb, and healthy recipe...


Stuffed Mushrooms



Ingredients:
1 Bag of Spinach (you need a lot....)
Portabella Mushrooms (4-8--one or 1.5 usually per person)
1 cup of parmesan cheese
1 cup of fat free mozzarella cheese
2 tsp of butter substitute (think: I Can't Believe It's Not Butter or Olive Oil or Smart Balance)
 8 oz water for the spinach!
Garlic to your likening, I am probably at 2 cloves


Let's get this show started!
Butter up a frying pan and add your spinach
Cook on a medium flame
Your spinach will start to wilt, so spritz with the water as mentioned above
Start also adding the garlic and mixing it around, constantly keep moving the spinach around!
Add Parmesan cheese and continue the above. 

... When the spinach is pretty docile (i.e. dead in a pan and a bright green color)...  STOP

Meanwhile... in another pot...
Clean your portabellas out!
Remove stems
Boil in a pot until your mushrooms are softer and the water is turning mushroom brown
Use a strainer to drain the excess water.
Let cool...


On your cookie sheet.... 
Spray with PAM or some sort of anti-stick device to your likening
Place the cooled portabellas on the pan
Insert the cooked spinach into each mushroom
Use the shredded cheese over each mushroom.

Cook on 350 for 15 minutes until cheese is melted... 

**Serve and Enjoy**
