How to Make Portabellas Florentine

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Remove the gills from 4 large portabella mushrooms using a spoon.
  3. Gently brush the mushroom cavities and tops with 1 tablespoon of your favorite vinaigrette.
  4. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt evenly over the mushrooms.
  5. Arrange the mushrooms, stem-side up, on a lightly greased baking pan. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of cornbread stuffing mix with ½ cup of water. Stir until moistened.
  7. In a skillet, sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, in 1 tablespoon of vinaigrette over moderately high heat until softened (about 5 minutes).
  8. Season the sautéed onion with ¼ teaspoon salt and a pinch of garlic powder.
  9. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the cornbread stuffing mixture and 1 (10 ounce) package of frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry.
  10. Fill each mushroom cap evenly with the spinach and cornbread stuffing mixture.
  11. Top each stuffed mushroom with 1 tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese and 5-6 cherry tomatoes, halved.
  12. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the spinach is puffed and cooked through, and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
