Description

Everything you love about stuffed mushrooms is set neatly into these mini phyllo appetizer bites--spinach, mushrooms, garlic, cheese, and bacon.

Ingredients

30 mini phyllo tart shells
1 (12 ounce) package frozen spinach souffle (such as Stouffer's®)
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
2 1/2 cups diced fresh mushrooms
1 clove garlic, minced
4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place phyllo shells on top.
2 Remove souffle from the box, take off plastic cover, and microwave on High power for 6 minutes. Remove carefully, stir, and set aside.
3 Place butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Saute mushrooms until they darken and begin to shrink, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and continue to stir, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; Add souffle and bacon to mushrooms and garlic and mix until evenly incorporated.
4 Fill each phyllo shell with souffle mixture, dividing evenly, about 1 rounded teaspoonful each. Sprinkle each filled shell with Parmesan cheese.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature and garnish with fresh parsley.
