Sometimes you just need a lazy dinner…especially when there are screaming babies present. These mushrooms are especially great because you really have the freedom to fill them with whatever you’d like!

I had some kale on hand, but you could totally use frozen spinach. Actually, I always keep some chopped spinach in the freezer. It’s always great for added nutrition in a quick meal.

Anyway, these stuffed mushrooms are a quick vegetarian meal, perfect for the weeknights!

What would you stuff your mushrooms with???
