How to Make Mushrooms Florentine

Preheat your broiler to high.
In a medium bowl, gently combine 10 ounces thawed creamed spinach, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/4 cup minced onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
Set the spinach mixture aside.
Clean and dry 1 pound of large mushroom caps (cremini, button, or portobello work well).
Lightly brush both sides of the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Sprinkle the mushroom caps with 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional).
Place the mushroom caps on a baking sheet, cap side up.
Broil 6-8 inches from the heat source for 6-8 minutes, or until the caps are nicely browned.
Flip the mushroom caps over.
Evenly fill each mushroom cap with the spinach mixture.
Broil for another 2-3 minutes, or until the spinach is heated through and the tops are lightly browned.
Serve immediately as a delicious side dish.
