2. Sauté the Spinach: Quick sautéing the spinach before stuffing helps to release its moisture and intensifies its flavor. Ensure the spinach is wilted and any excess liquid is drained to avoid soggy mushrooms.
3. Use Fresh Eggs: Fresh eggs will give you the best results. Crack each egg over the stuffed mushroom right before baking to ensure the yolk stays intact and cooks perfectly in the oven.
4. Add Cheese for Extra Flavor: Sprinkle some grated cheese like mozzarella or parmesan on top of the eggs before baking. This adds a deliciously creamy and savory finish to your stuffed mushrooms.
5. Pre-Bake the Mushrooms: Pre-bake the portobello mushrooms for 5-7 minutes before stuffing. This ensures that they are tender and reduces the overall baking time once the eggs and spinach are added.
