Portobello Mushrooms

I'm a big mushroom fan. Throw 'em in a pasta dish, use them as a side, make them into a main dish....they're just so versatile. Here's are a couple of ways to incorporate them into your eating life.

Grilled:

INGREDIENTS:
4 Portobello mushrooms
8 tbsp olive oil
Montreal seasoning
Garlic powder
Lemon pepper

DIRECTIONS:
Pour one tbsp of oil on each mushroom. Season to your preference.
Place mushrooms on grill. Cook over medium flame for 5-7 minutes.
Flip and baste each mushroom with remaining olive oil.
Cook an additional 5-7 minutes.

Baked Mushroom Parmesan

4 Portobello mushrooms
2 cups of mozzarella cheese
1 jar of pasta sauce
1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350*.
2. In a frying pan, saute mushrooms in olive oil for 3 minutes per side.
3. Spread some pasta sauce on the bottom of a 9x12 casserole dish.
4. Place mushrooms into casserole dish, top side down.
5. Add mozzarella to the inside of each mushroom.
