Grilled Portobello and Pesto Sandwiches with a Fresh Garden Salad

This vegetarian meal is perfect for lunch or dinner. It cooks up quickly without heating up the kitchen.

Ingredients:
  • 4 portobello mushroom tops
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • 1 jar of pesto, or try my easy basil pesto recipe
  • 1 jar of roasted red bell peppers
  • 2 tablespoons of capers
  • 4 slices of provolone cheese
  • 4 cups of spring mix for salad
  • 4 cups of romaine
  • 1 sliced tomato
  • ½ sliced cucumber
  • ¼ cup of sliced black olives
  • ¼ cup of Italian dressing

Preparation:
Toss the salad ingredients together with the dressing and place in individual serving bowls.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a frying pan.
Cook the mushrooms in the pan until they begin to get crisp on the outside.
Remove from the pan and set on a paper towel lined plate.
For each sandwich, spread some of the pesto on the bread slices.
Add some bell peppers, capers and a slice of cheese.
Top with a mushroom.
Grill in the indoor grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
