4. In the same large pan, heat the remaining olive oil and cook the portobello mushrooms, cap side down, for about 4 min.
Turn over and another 4 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer caps to a paper towel to drain. Fill the cavity of each mushroom with the spinach quinoa mixture and top with feta. Serve warm. (if you like, you can warm the caps in 400(F) oven for 5 min. to melt the cheese and soften the mushrooms more).
