Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and carefully remove the stems. Chop the stems finely and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach mixture, cream cheese, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan, breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir until well combined.
Lightly oil a baking sheet with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Arrange the mushroom caps on the baking sheet, hollow side up.
Spoon the spinach mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing gently to pack the filling in.
Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese evenly over the stuffed mushrooms.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish. Enjoy!
