Caramelized Shallot Stuffed Mushrooms

Hey guys! I thought I'd share a really yummy, and simple recipe for mushroom lovers. Simple food requires paying attention to your ingredients. A little love and patience, and you'll have amazing food. Enjoy! 


Caramelized Shallot & Sautéd Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms
Quick, Simple, & Filling.
Ingredients: 6 Baby Bella Mushrooms
2 Cups Cooked Spinach
1/2 Shallot
1/8 Cup ( 2 TBS) Sour Cream (organic is best)
1 Slice Muenster Cheese
Butter
Kosher Salt
Nutmeg (freshly ground is BEST)
Gently pop out stems from mushrooms and set aside. (do not throw these away) Season the inside of the mushroom caps lightly with salt and turn upside down.
This will help draw out moisture & season your mushrooms. You may also bake mushrooms at a low temp for about 5 minutes to draw out a ton of moisture. Just be careful not to over cook ;) 
Small dice stems & shallots. In a saucepan, low heat & about 2 TBS of butter, add shallots & lightly season with salt. ALWAYS season in layers!
When they are translucent & slightly golden, add stems. Lightly season.
When mushrooms & shallots are halfway done, add fresh spinach & crank up the heat. Season & add nutmeg. Nutmeg will highlight the spinach. Freshly ground nutmeg is the best option. It isn’t overwhelmingly potent.
Kill the heat and let mixture cool down. In a mixing bowl add veggies and sour cream.
Distribute mixture to mushroom caps evenly & top with Muenster cheese. Bake in oven at 325 degrees F (163 C) for about 10-15 minutes. Mushrooms will be tender and delicate! Enjoy~
