CHEESY, STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
• Roast the mushrooms: Arrange the mushrooms, stem side up, onions and garlic cloves in a single layer on 1 prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with half of the olive oil. Drizzle 1/2 cup water around the mushrooms on the baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper. Roast in the center of the oven until the mushrooms shrink in size and become darker brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• Bread the mushrooms: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with a splash of water. In another medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the granulated garlic. Dip each mushroom in the egg mixture and then coat completely with the breadcrumbs. Reserve everything.
• Fry the mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat until it begins to smoke. Add the mushrooms in a single layer. Cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until golden brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the oil and arrange in a single layer on a clean baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the roasted garlic cloves and onion slices with the cheese. Add any remaining egg and 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs leftover from the breading. Add the basil and mix well.
• Assemble and bake: On the same baking sheet, place 2 portobellos, stem-side up, with some distance between them. Pile half of the filling on each and then top with the remaining mushrooms, pressing gently but firmly down, so it forms a fairly compact sandwich. Bake until the cheese melts, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Arrange the lettuce to form 2 cups. Drizzle some pickle juice and red wine vinegar into the cups. Season with salt and pepper and then top with some sliced pickles.
• Place each mushroom burger onto a bottom bun. Flip a lettuce cup onto each burger and top with the top bun. Serve.

VEGETARIAN STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Turn on the oven's broiler to a low setting.
• Combine squash, zucchini, peppers, onion, 2 tablespoons olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and 2 1/2 tablespoons seasoning blend in a bowl. Mix well.
• Cook on the preheated grill until tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
• While vegetables are cooking, rub remaining olive oil on outsides and insides of mushrooms. Lay face-down on a baking sheet and sprinkle remaining seasoning blend over.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler on very low setting.
• Broil until slightly darkened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove mushrooms and turn upside-down. Fill mushrooms with grilled vegetables, then top with Parmesan and mozzarella cheese. Return to the broiler until cheese is lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle parsley around edges of serving plates, and put a few pineapple chunks on each mushroom for that "extra" touch to make it fancy!
