Spinach and Artichoke Stuffed Portobello Caps with Snap Pea and Sundried Tomato Salad
After hosting a few vegetarian visitors, I was struck with the idea of making myself a meatless supper. I also love roaming the produce aisles at the local grocery store and just picking out what looks good. It allows to me to pick the freshest, best products and come up with a way to use them. It also enables me to make just enough for myself by buying just what I need for one meal, making this the perfect weeknight supper when I eat alone. Best of all, it takes about 15-20 minutes to prepare! Spinach and Artichoke Stuffed Portobello Caps with Snap Pea and Sundried Tomato Salad Served 1. Leftover Potential: I stuffed two mushroom caps so that I could eat one for lunch the next day. I reheated it in the oven. I also had a little bit of the stuffing leftover, which I placed on toasted bread for a bruschetta later that week.
