provided by EatingWell

Ingredients

  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 portobello mushroom caps
  • 4 large slices country-style sourdough bread
  • 1/2 cup sliced jarred roasted red peppers
  • 1/2 cup chopped tomato
  • 1/4 cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pitted Kalamata olives
  • 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 cups loosely packed mixed baby salad greens

Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat grill to medium-high.

2. Mash garlic and salt on a cutting board with the side of a knife until it's a smooth paste. Mix the paste with 1 tablespoon oil in a small dish. Lightly brush the oil mixture over portobellos and then on one side of each slice of bread.

3. Combine red peppers, tomato, feta, olives, vinegar, oregano and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a medium bowl.

4. Grill the mushroom caps until tender, about 4 minutes per side; grill the bread until crisp, about 1 minute per side.

5. Toss salad greens with the red pepper mixture. Place the grilled mushrooms top-side down on 4 half-slices of the bread. Top with the salad mixture and the remaining bread.

A burger is still a burger, by any other name

Why all the controversy over what a burger is or is not. This is a great sandwich, and according to Webster's, can legally be called a burger. Lighten up, folks! burg·er(bûrgr) n. 1. A sandwich consisting of a bun, a cooked beef patty, and often other ingredients such as cheese, onion slices, lettuce, or condiments. Often used in combination: a cheeseburger. 2. A similar sandwich with a nonbeef filling. Often used in combination: a crab burger; a tofu burger.

the portobello (mushroom) is the meat substitute

maybe this flew by some of your heads, but this is meatless, it says it in the description just before clicking the link to the recipe: "The portobello has long been a backyard grilling substitute for meat " basically there's no point to "meat only lovers" even looking this far into the recipe, let alone bothering to leave a review.
