ROASTED PORTOBELLOS WITH PESTO



Roasted Portobellos With Pesto image

Homemade or storebought pesto can be used in this 30-minute recipe that's perfect for meatless Monday (or any day for that matter). Just scrape away the gills of the mushroom with a spoon, toss the caps with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and roast gill-side down for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, fill with pesto and pop them back into the oven for about 10 more minutes. Serve with a pile of rice or a tangle of noodles slicked with butter. There you have it: Satisfying and simple.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO OMELETTE



Grilled Portobello Omelette image

I just got this on a recipe card from my local Earthfare store, and I can't wait to try it out! What a unique use of both portobello mushrooms and the grill! It looks like there is a lot of "play" room here, as far as using different cheeses (feta?), veggies (sun-dried tomatoes?), and even brushes of vinegar...

Provided by smellyvegetarian

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 portabella mushrooms (large)
1/4 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese
4 teaspoons green onions, chopped
4 teaspoons red bell peppers, chopped
4 eggs
1/2 cup egg substitute

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to medium.
  • Remove stems from mushrooms and scrape gills with a spoon.
  • Place 1 T cheese and 1 t each of the onion and bell pepper into each mushroom cap. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a small bowl, beat eggs and egg substitute, adding salt or pepper to taste.
  • Place mushroom caps on the grill and fill each with the egg mixture.
  • Grill, covered, 25 minutes or until the eggs are set. Serve immediately.

Tips:

- For a more intense flavor, roast the portobello mushrooms in the oven before adding them to the omelette. - Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese in the omelette. A sharp cheddar or a creamy goat cheese would be delicious. - If you don't have pesto, you can make your own by blending together fresh basil, olive oil, pine nuts, and Parmesan cheese. - Serve the omelette with a side of fresh fruit or a green salad for a complete meal.
