    One of my most popular holiday recipes is my Pancetta & Goat Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms.  If you've had them, you'll get it.  So good. If you haven't, what's wrong with you, go make them!

    I make those mushrooms for just about every holiday.

    In an effort to keep things new over here, I decided I should come up with a new stuffed mushroom recipe.  The thing is, this year I'm trying to scale down Thanksgiving.  We are crazy busy.  We have my daughter's birthday party that week and the day after, we leave for vacation.  I just am not feeling it.  Sorry.

    I have shared with you on social media and even on some breakfast recipe posts lately that I have been trying to eat healthier/lighter breakfasts.  One of my favorites is an air fried portobella mushroom that I stuff with cauliflower rice, spinach dip and top with an egg.

    I decided that the spinach dip and the portobella go so well together that it would make a great combination for a stuffed mushroom.

    What's The Shortcut?

    The shortcut is using pre-made, store-bought spinach-artichoke dip.  My favorite is the frozen one from Trader Joe's.  You can use any kind you want but I almost always have a box of the TJ's one in my freezer.  

    If you are wanting to make your own spinach & artichoke dip, you could try this recipe.

    How To Make Spinach Dip Stuffed Mushrooms

    Start by getting your spinach dip ready.  If you are using the frozen one like I do, just zap it in the microwave.  While that's warming up, you'll want to wipe down your mushrooms and remove the stems.  Take half of the stems and finely chop them.  You can discard the remaining stems.

    To the prepared spinach dip, add chopped mushroom stems and 2 T breadcrumbs.

    breadcrumbs added to dip

    Spoon the mixture into mushrooms and place in prepared baking dish.  Once the mushrooms are in the baking dish, sprinkle a little more of the breadcrumbs on top of filling and give a little spray of olive oil with a misto bottle or drizzle butter on top, just to help the crumbs get crispy.

    Bake them for 25 minutes and serve.  If you really want to go crazy, you can add some grated parmesan cheese to the tops just before serving.

    Yes, these spinach dip stuffed mushrooms make a great holiday appetizer but they also make a delightful side dish or I've heard they make a delicious lunch.  Okay, I didn't hear it, it's me.  I ate them for lunch.  Don't judge me.
