Courses: Vegetarian
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Five-inch portobello mushrooms - stemmed
1   Sesame Ginger Marinade or
  Lemon Herb Marinade - (see recipes)
4   Whole-wheat buns or hard rolls - split, and
  Lightly toasted
1 tablespoon 15mlBalsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons 45mlOlive oil
2 teaspoons 10mlDijon mustard
1   Small bunch arugula - stemmed, and
  Leaves torn in half - (2 cups)
8 oz 227gSoft goat cheese

Recipe Instructions

Hold a mushroom, cut-side up, in your hand. Using small sharp knife, carefully scrape to remove most of dark brown "gills." Repeat with remaining mushrooms.

Prepare marinade in large, shallow glass dish. Add mushrooms and turn to coat. Let mushrooms marinate at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.

In medium bowl, whisk together vinegar, oil and mustard to make dressing. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Prepare hot charcoal fire or preheat gas grill on high. Grill mushrooms, turning often, until tender and grill-marked, about 10 minutes. Lightly toast rolls, if desired.

To assemble sandwiches, spread goat cheese on both sides of rolls. Arrange mushrooms on bottom of each roll. Add arugula to dressing in bowl and toss well. Place arugula leaves on top of each mushroom, cover with bun tops and serve.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
