Ingredients
  

  • 4 large portobello mushrooms stems and gills removed
  • 1 cup wild rice blend
  • 2 ½ cups low sodium vegetable broth plus more if needed
  • ¾ cup shredded carrots
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • cup toasted pine nuts
  • 2 cups or about 3 large handfuls baby spinach
  • 2 oz. goat cheese crumbles
  • 2 tablespoon parmesan cheese
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary chopped + more for topping
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme + more for topping
  • 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil + more for mushrooms
  • coarse salt
  • pepper

Instructions
 

  • preheat oven to 425 F.
  • heat olive oil over medium high heat.
  • add onions and cook until translucent and soft about 4 minutes.
  • add garlic, carrots, herbs and good pinch of salt and pepper and sauté until fragrant about 1 minute.
  • add in the rice and toast about 30 seconds.
  • add in broth, stir and let rice come to boil.
  • turn down heat and simmer for about 30-35 minutes until rice is tender (you may need to cook longer and add in more broth, depending on how tender rice you'd like the rice).
  • while rice is cooking, place mushrooms on a baking sheet and lightly coat them with olive oil, salt and pepper.
  • cook mushrooms about 4 minutes on each side until tender but not completely wilted down.
  • transfer the mushrooms to a plate and gently use a paper towel to pat away any extra moisture.
  • about one minute before you think rice is done toss in the spinach until wilted down.
  • remove from heat and add in parmesan cheese, pine nuts and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • add a few spoonfuls of the rice mixture to the mushrooms.
  • top with goat cheese and fresh herbs to serve.
