FHW Recipe: Portabella Pizzas

i​Directions:
In a large pan, brown ground turkey and ground sausage with a splash of olive oil (medium heat) Add garlic clove, green onion, sweet onion, bell pepper and tomato. Prep large Portabella mushrooms- cut off top of mushroom from trunk. Use spoon to slightly hallow out bottom side of mushroom. (Creating a spot to put filling). Roughly chop interiors and throw into filling mixture to cook. Brush mushrooms tops with remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper- then set in small oven dish and set aside. Once filling mixture is browned and veggies are soft- add cream cheese and stir until completely incorporated (mixture should be a creamy, and smell divine). Add parmesan cheese to mixture and continue to cook on low until filling is a creamy and cheesy incorporating all ingredients. Last add spinach into mixture, gently fold into mixture and turn off heat. Let cool slightly- ( about 5 minutes) and then spoon in mixture into mushroom tops. Top with a dash of parmesan. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

ENJOY!
