Ingredients

7 large portabella mushroom caps, gills removed
1 large red bell pepper, chopped or cut in strips
6 mini sweet peppers, cut into ringlets
4 clove fresh garlic minced or chopped
14 slice yellow onion, 1/4 inch thick
7 slice super sharp cheddar cheese
14 slice hickory smoked bacon, regular cut
14 slice tomato
7 tsp yellow mustard
7 Tbsp catsup
7 lettuce leaves, as desired
2 Tbsp olive oil
14 slice kosher dill flat pickle slices

Steps:

1. Pre-heat oven to 375 F.
2. Clean the mushrooms with a paper towel, then remove the stems. Clean the underside with a medium size spoon, removing the brown scale-like texture, which is referred to as the gills.
3. Brush both the top and underside of mushroom with olive oil if desired.
4. You will need a shallow pan like a jelly roll type. Spray with non-stick cooking spray and add each of the mushrooms. Set aside until needed.
5. Chop the stems along with the red bell pepper, mini sweet peppers and garlic, or use a food processor.
6. Add the olive oil to a large skillet. Then add the peppers with mushroom stems and saute until tender and transparent. Remove from heat and set aside.
7. Now slice the onions. Top each mushroom cap with a slice of sharp cheddar cheese. Then add two onion slices on top of each cheese slice.
8. Divide the sauteed pepper mixture evenly atop each of the mushrooms.
9. Next, when cool enough to handle, wrap each mushroom portion with 2 slices of the smoked bacon strips, over the top in a crisscross pattern and tucking underneath. Repeat until all are wrapped.
10. Now place the pan in preheated 375 degree oven and bake for 25 minutes.
11. Then, increase the temperature to 400 degrees and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes or until bacon is cooked crisp and golden brown, or as desired.
12. Serve without bun for low carb eating, or with a bun, as desired, with the suggested condiments. Enjoy.

Tips:

Choose the right mushrooms. Look for large, firm portobello mushrooms with no blemishes.
Prepare the mushrooms properly. Remove the stems and gills from the mushrooms, then brush them with olive oil.
Cook the mushrooms over medium-high heat. This will help to caramelize the mushrooms and give them a slightly smoky flavor.
Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the mushrooms will steam instead of sear.
Season the mushrooms to taste. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices.
Top the mushrooms with your favorite toppings. Cheese, bacon, avocado, and a fried egg are all popular choices.
Serve the mushrooms immediately. They are best enjoyed hot off the grill or out of the oven.
