Grilled Portobello Mushroom Burgers
Ingredients:
4 large Portobello mushrooms (1 cap per sandwich)
4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
Rock or kosher salt and pepper to taste
4 oz. low-fat mozzarella
4 large pieces roasted red pepper (roast yourself or if you buy it pat dry with a paper towel.)
4 whole wheat pitas
Greens (arugula, romaine, whatever you like!)
Low-fat mayo or store-bought pesto, if desired
Instructions:
Remove and discard mushroom stems. Brush top of mushroom caps with a bit of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Lightly coat your grill with cooking spray. Grill mushrooms, covered, for approximately four minutes; turn and grill another three minutes, or until tender.
Place flat side of mushroom up on the grill, and top with a thin slice of mozzarella and a nice juicy piece of red pepper. Cover and cook one minute more, until the cheese is melted. At same time place your pita on the grill until lightly toasted.
Put a layer of greens in the pita and top with a mushroom cap. Add a bit of low-fat mayo or prepared pesto sauce.
