Preparing the Portobello Mushrooms

You will also need to remove the stems and the gills. Gently scoop them out using a spoon and then discard. Some like to use the stems in the filling mixture but I didn’t like the taste so I discarded them as well.

Make sure to thoroughly wash the mushrooms to remove any dirt or bacteria. Be gentle. You can also soak them in a bowl with water and vinegar and then rinse. Then, pat them dry with a paper towel, making sure the water is completely absorbed.

The Spinach and Ricotta Filling

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • ricotta cheese (naturally high protein)
  • shredded mozzarella (or freshly grated parmesan cheese)
  • fresh spinach 
  • minced garlic
  • salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning

Can I Use Cottage Cheese Instead of Ricotta?

Both are a great option when in comes to high protein. But there are subtle differences in taste.

Ricotta cheese is higher in minerals like calcium, zinc and selenium, with a slightly nutty taste. Cottage cheese is known to be creamier and sweeter tasting. It is slightly higher in carbs and is also high in sodium. 

Also to note–cottage cheese is rich in B vitamins, whereas ricotta in richer in vitamin A, D, E, and K. They’re both high in protein and should be eaten and alternated whenever possible!

How To Make Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

  1. Simply preheat the oven, wash and dry your portobello mushrooms, removing the caps and gills.
  2. Combine filling ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  3. Stuff, then bake!

What to Serve With Keto Stuffed Mushrooms

You can make these as a healthy yet filling side dish or alongside your favourite protein. Make with low carb Keto Shake N Bake Chicken or these Keto Turkey Meatballs, and you’ll be all set.

You could also use the same filling in smaller mushrooms like these Garlic Butter and Feta Stuffed Mushrooms (GF, Keto, Low Carb), for the perfect appetizer, for get togethers, game day, or to bring to any special event. 

Enjoy!
