    Marinated Portobello Mushroom Sandwich, served on a whole grain bread with grilled bell pepper, melted gruyere cheese, and mozzarella. To make this roasted portobello sandwich, I marinated the mushrooms in a balsamic vinegar oil mixture for at least 15 minutes then cook in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until they become tender.

    The cooking process of this roasted portobello sandwich is pretty simple.  I managed to grill the bell peppers at the same time that I roasted the portobello mushrooms in the oven. What makes this marinated portobello mushroom sandwich great?  It’s all about the balance of the crunch of the buttered bread with the melty, gooey and the nutty flavor of the gruyere cheese. It literally melted in my mouth, so delicious!  If you can't find the gruyere cheese at your local store, you can use Manchego, Gouda, or a mild cheddar as an alternative.

    To prepare the portobello mushroom before cooking, simply remove the stems, scrape out the gills with a spoon if you prefer, and use a damp paper towel to wipe each side of mushroom to remove any dirt. You can repeat this step to make sure that the mushroom is fully cleaned. Do not soak the mushrooms because they can absorb all the liquid quickly and reduce the flavor.

      Yes! I want this sandwich. I could have some sort of sandwich for every meal if 'they'd' let me. 🙂 The flavors sound like a perfect combo.
