Portobello Burgers

    I know summer is long gone and no one wants to think about it right now (unless of course you are one of those weird people who can enjoy the holidays without snow), but I'm going to rewind a few months to a nice warm summer day with the grill all fired up. One of my favorite things to do in the summer is grill all kinds of delicious foods. I'm pretty sure the most popular food to grill in the summer is a burger-everyone seems to love this heated ground up animal. I was never a huge fan of hamburgers because they are greasy and fatty and not at all good for me. Steven, on the other hand is a huge hamburger fan. He goes to restaurants that serve good food, and what does he get? A hamburger. Having said all that, I decided to make Steven some "hamburgers" this week (vegan of course).
    Portobello mushrooms are incredibly meaty and the perfect hamburger substitute. I've seen recipes and pictures for portobello mushroom burgers before, but never tried them, but let me tell you-they are delicious!

Cooking Directions:
I coated my mushrooms in olive oil and balsamic vinegar then popped them in the oven at 350 for about five minutes. We ate them with homemade wheat buns, onions, peppers, marinara sauce, garlic, and a little horseradish. Of course you can use whatever you want-treat it like a hamburger!
