Grilled Veggie-Portobello Mushroom Burgers

Portobello mushrooms, winter squash, and eggplant are marinated, then grilled and topped with blue cheese in what’s become a favorite at my house.

INGRIDIENT

6 large portobello mushroom, stems removed

1 eggplant, sliced into 1/2 inch rounds

1 medium yellow squash, cut into 1/4-inch slices

1 zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch slices

1 (16 fl oz) bottle balsamic vinaigrette

1 (4 ounce) package crumbled blue cheese

6 hamburger buns, split and lightly toasted

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Place the mushrooms, eggplant,

Step: 2

, and zucchini into a shallow bowl or baking dish. Drizzle with the balsamic vinaigrette, turning to coat evenly. Cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, stirring occasionally.

Step: 3

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

Step: 4

Drain vegetables and discard marinade. Place vegetables on preheated grill, and cook until lightly browned, turning once, or about 3 minutes on each side. (Note that cooking times vary between grills.) Sprinkle the mushrooms with blue cheese, and let the cheese melt slightly.

Step: 5

Open the 6 hamburger buns and divide the eggplant, squash, and zucchini among bottom halves. Place the portobello mushrooms on top of the vegetables, cheese side up. Top with the remaining 6 hamburger bun halves. If necessary, use toothpicks to hold the buns in place. Serve immediately.
