Ingredients

  • 2 French rolls
  • 2 portabella mushroom caps
  • balsamic vinegar
  • 12 teaspoon oregano
  • 12 teaspoon basil
  • 12 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 23 cup low-fat mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • thyme, to taste
  • 12 sweet onion, sliced
  • 1 green pepper, sliced
  • 2 slices reduced-fat provolone cheese

Method

  • First, wash the shroom caps, de-stem them, and set aside.
  • Now, in a shallow dish, combine balsamic vinegar, oregano, basil, and garlic powder( 1/3 inches in dish and a generous sprinkling of the herbs, should do ya.)
  • Place shroom caps ( gills down) in the dish and swirl the mixture around making sure to get the tops of the caps as well.
  • Now place in the fridge for 30min- 1 hour.
  • Preheat broiler to about 450F.
  • While shrooms suck up their flavor, Slice green peppers and onion (fajita style).
  • Saute them for a few minutes until they start turning soft, set aside.
  • Now, combine mayo, garlic, lemon juice and a pich of rosemary( fresh is better) This is now Aioli sauce, set aside for use later.
  • TIP: You don't have to, but I always pre-toast my french rolls, otherwise they can get soggy from the shrooms, cheese, etc.
  • I toast all sides except for the bottom of the top half of roll.
  • By this time the shrooms are ready, heat a grill pan and spray with olive oil cooking spray.
  • Cook the shrooms over medium heat until tender throughout, about 2 1/2 min on each side.
  • I usually pour some of the marinade over while cooking as well.
  • Transfer caps to an absorbent paper towel (many) to drain excess juices.
  • Cut caps in half.
  • Now spread a little mayo on bottom half of roll, then stack, mushrooms, peppers, and onions, then top with the provolone.
  • Arrange on a broiler safe pan ( also put the top of the bun, bottom up so it can toast also) place in oven and watch, should be toasted, and cheese melted in 5 minutes or less.
  • Spread mayo on the remaining half of bun.
  • Press together, cut in half, and enjoy.
  • (Goes great with steamed kale).
