Spinach Dip-Stuffed Mushrooms

By

I use a melon baller to hollow out the mushroom caps to make them easier to stuff. They also fit neatly into muffin tins or a deviled egg tray for traveling. —Ashley Pierce, Brantford, OntarioPreheat oven to 400°

Remove stems from mushrooms. Set aside. In a small skillet heat olive oil over medium heat. Add spinach and saute until wilted. Add garlic, cook 1 minute longer.
