Preheat oven to 375 F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray and arrange the mushrooms on the pan.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add spinach and cook uncovered until the spinach is completely wilted. Squeeze out all of the excess liquid from the spinach in a colander with the back of a spoon.
Place cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, oregano, breadcrumbs, spinach, cilantro and hot sauce in a bowl. Stir to combine. Add salt and pepper.
Fill each mushroom cap with the spinach mixture, rounding tops off.
Bake until tops are golden and mushrooms are cooked through, about 20-25 minutes.
