Can I use frozen spinach instead of fresh?

Yes, you can use thawed and well-drained frozen spinach as a substitute for fresh. Just squeeze out excess moisture to prevent the filling from becoming watery.

How can I make this recipe dairy-free?

Replace cream cheese with a dairy-free alternative like cashew or almond-based cream cheese and ensure all other ingredients are plant-based.

Can I prepare these stuffed mushrooms ahead of time?

Yes, assemble the mushrooms and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time if cooking from cold.

What can I use instead of mushrooms if I don't like them?
