Portobello Mushroom Burger

I love this one! If you ever get bored of veggie patty-type burgers, this is a super alternative. Look around for some big old juicy-looking portobello caps at your local store. You will also need:

Buns or kaiser rolls (perfect for these!)
Fresh Basil
Red Bell Peppers- get the ones in the jar that are marinated
Provolone cheese slices
1/4 c. Balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp. Olive oil
Fresh Garlic
Onion
Tomato
Mayo

Heat a grilling pan to medium. Prepare the mushrooms by brushing them off with a vegetable brush and cleaning out the underside with a spoon. Mix a marinade of olive oil, with some crushed garlic. Brush the underside of the shrooms, and place on the pan. I love balsamic, so I pretty much soak the little guys in the marinade but it's up to you how much you use. Grill for 3-4 minutes, then flip. Once the mushrooms are almost done, add the cheese and basil leaves and let it get nice and melty.

Put the burgers together layering the red peppers, onion, tomato, and whatever else you dig. It's pretty quick and easy, and a nice summer burger.
