Baked Cheesy Portobello

 

 

 

Giant portobello mushrooms are terrific as a side dish for grilled fish or steak, or as a vegetarian main dish "steak." Paired with grilled sweet red peppers on a kaiser roll, they make delectable sandwiches. Buy a block of good-quality Parmesan or other sharp cheese and use a vegetable peeler to shave it straight off the block.This is a super easy & gourmet-looking baked mushrooms.

• 1 tbsp chopped garlic
• salt and black pepper to taste
• 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Methods:

1. Place portobello mushrooms, cap side down, on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or aluminium foil.
