Roasted Portobello Mushrooms with Blue Cheese - YUM YUM!





2 portobello mushrooms, stems removed


1 tablespoon soy sauce, or to taste


freshly ground black pepper


3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese





Serves 2.





Preheat oven or toaster oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).


Place mushroom caps, gill side up, on baking sheet. Drizzle with soy sauce and add a few grinds of black pepper to each cap.


Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoon blue cheese onto each cap. Return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is fully melted.

This is one of my favorites.





Start by cooking pork or turkey Italian Sausage until it's well browned. Remove sausage, saute chopped onion, then mix sausage back into the onions.





Add tomato sauce (original recipe used red wine) and red pepper flakes to onion/sausage mixture and cook a few minutes while you chop the spinach. Then add chopped spinach, which will look like a lot at first.





After a few minutes the spinach has cooked down and looks like this. Turn off heat and stir in chopped chopped basil and parsley.





Then brush both sides of the mushrooms with olive oil, put mushrooms on the grill inside facing down and cook about 4 minutes before you stuff them.





Bobby Flay's version of this used fresh mozarella with tomatoes on top, and it looks delicious. There are no garden tomatoes here yet, and I substituted grated mozarella which is a bit more widely available. The stuffed mushrooms cook on the grill for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and starting to brown, mushroom is cooked through, and stuffing is hot.





Sensuous Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms





2 tablespoons olive oil


1 leek, white parts only, diced


1 shallot, minced


4 large Portobello mushrooms


1 cup broccoli, chopped


1 cup spinach (fresh or frozen, thawed), chopped

Add chopped stems and broccoli to the pan and continue to saute, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes more, until broccoli is crisp-tender but still bright green. Add spinach and saute a few minutes more, until wilted. Add parsley and thyme, stir well to combine, and remove from heat. Place mushroom caps, gill side up, in a lightly-oiled baking pan. Mound saut茅ed vegetables evenly in caps. Top with crumbled goat cheese. In a small skillet, melt the butter and add breadcrumbs, stirring to coat evenly. Sprinkle buttered crumbs over the tops of the mushrooms. Bake in preheated oven for 25 - 30 minutes, until crumbs are golden brown and cheese is melted. Serve immediately
