Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Mushrooms





Spinach Artichoke Dip is one of my favorite appetizers, and this appetizer takes it up a notch.  For my most recent recipe contribution for Life Around Home, I paired two of my favorite appetizers - Spinach Artichoke Dip & Stuffed Mushrooms into one. And, in the process, I completely transformed it into a healthy dish, that not only is low in calories & fat - but actually tastes good too!

(serves 4-6)



Ingredients:
  • 10oz frozen spinach, thawed & squeezed
  • 12oz jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained & finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped shallots
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup olive oil mayonnaise
  • 2/3 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 4oz 2% milk Mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 12-15 med-large sized fresh mushrooms
  • paprika to garnish (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Combine the first 9 ingredients together in a bowl. Mix well & set aside.  Using a damp paper towel, clean each mushroom.  Pluck the stem out from the center & hollow them out a little with a small spoon.  Scoop a generous portion of dip into each mushroom, making a mound in the center.  

Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray & arrange the stuffed mushrooms on top.  Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.  Sprinkle with paprika to garnish.
