Ground Turkey and Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms
Prep time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 15 minutes
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- 6 large portobello mushroom caps, cleaned and gills removed (gently scrape it out with a spoon)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1/2 pound ground turkey
- Handful of baby spinach leaves
- 6-8 grape tomatoes, sliced (and roasted if you prefer)
- Salt and pepper, to taste (Italian seasoning would be great too!)
-
In a large skillet over medium high heat, melt about 2 teaspoons of coconut oil. Place the mushrooms into the skillet and let cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Flip them halfway through. Set aside on a plate.
-
In the same skillet, add the onion and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Then add the ground turkey to the pan and break it up into small pieces with a spatula or wooden spoon. Cook until it’s all cooked through. Sprinkle salt and pepper and other seasonings, if using.
-
Remove from heat and add the baby spinach leaves. The residual heat should wilt the spinach easily.
-
To assemble: use a small spoon and scoop the turkey spinach filling into the caps of the mushrooms. Top with grape tomatoes. Serve warm!
