Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 large portobello mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 whole wheat pita pockets
  • 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/2 cup loosely packed fresh basil
  • 8 slices fresh mozzarella cheese

Instruction

  • Remove the stems from the portobellos and scrape the gills from the insides. Then use a damp cloth to rub them clean.
  • Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and minced garlic in a small bowl.
  • Brush the tops and bottoms of the portobellos with the mixture until they are well coated. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Place a grill pan or heavy bottom skillet over medium heat. Grill the portobellos stem-side down for 5 minutes, then flip them and grill an additional 5 minutes until soft.
  • Assemble the sandwiches by slicing a pocket into the pitas and filling them each with a grilled portobello and a portion of the tomatoes, basil and fresh mozzarella. Drizzle with any of the remaining balsamic vinaigrette.
