Grilled Mushroom Sandwich With Citrus Mayo

I created this recipe to taste like a mushroom sandwich we served at the Good Earth Restaurant in Santa Clara, California (which is no longer in business). It tastes great with marinated portobello mushrooms, roasted red bell peppers, smoked gouda cheese, and spring mix!

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons orange juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
• ⅓ cup mayonnaise
• 4 portobello mushroom caps
• 1 (12 ounce) jar roasted red bell peppers
• 1 (10 ounce) bag mixed salad greens
• 4 rolls sourdough bread
• 4 slices smoked Gouda cheese

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.

Step 2

Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and garlic until well blended. Pour over mushroom caps in a resealable bag to coat, then seal and allow to marinate for 30 minutes. Stir together mayonnaise and orange juice, and set aside.

Step 3

Remove mushroom caps from the marinade and shake off excess. Place each mushroom cap upside down on a square piece of foil. Place roasted peppers on top, and seal. Cook on preheated grill until tender, about 15 minutes, turning occasionally. When the mushrooms are nearly done, cut open the sourdough rolls and grill until golden brown on the cut sides.

Step 4

To assemble the sandwiches, spread the cut sides of the rolls with orange mayonnaise, and layer with mushroom, roasted pepper, Gouda cheese, and the mixed greens.
