    I make "pizza" out of them sometimes- sauce, cheese, sausage (if you like it). Also chopped tomatoes with mint and feta is delicious.

    bump so I can follow. I love eating these in restaurants but have no clue how to bake them.

    Eggplant mixed with tomatoes and onions, sprinkled with some goat cheese. Add ground meat to the mix if you want.
  • ummm pizza! thats our favorite! clean them out, take the gills out, a little bit of sauce (home made is better), some mozzerella cheese and whatever toppings you prefer! bake at 400 for about 20 minutes or until cheese is golden brown! delish! :)

    I love them on the grill! I just throw them down and then baste them with a little teriyaki sauce. They are awesome!

    I did some baby bellas this weekend, just put them on a skewer, then sprayed some olive oil on them, added some garlic powder, salt and pepper and just threw them on the grill. they were awesome! Just rotate or flip as needed.

    After I cook black beans I add them to the food processor to make a paste. Lay that in the cap and then top with onions and bell peppers.

    Turkey flavored like italian sausage, mushrooms (yes, more mushrooms. I love them), black olives, turkey pepperoni, pizza sauce, 1 egg white, shredded mozzarella cheese.

    spread pizza sauce in the mushroom cap
    mix the cooked turkey, mushrooms, black olives, turkey pepperoni, egg white and cheese together. This does not need to be able to be shaped into a ball. The egg white and cheese only helps to hold it together. I stuff them until they are heaping with the mixture (at least double in size)

    Spray a glass pan with olive oil and bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes or until the mushrooms have finished cooking to desired texture.

    I use them like burger buns instead of bread - drizzle with the tiniest bit of olive oil and bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes.

    Use them in replacement of bread for sandwich or burger, ......cover with some olive oil and some cheese on top and bake in over...., or make pizzas out of them! I make mine with ground beef and sauce and cheese, yummy!

    We marinate in italian dressing and grill. We eat them on a bun w/condiments like a burger. The portabella pizzas are delicious too.

    love the pizza idea. You can also make like ground meat and veggies and fill it up.

    This struck me as funny because I always heard the opposite: use them in place of burger meat between two buns. But hey, your way is definitely interesting.

    Fast and delicious company dish;

    Brush the portobello caps with olive oil and roast in oven for 15 min. at 350 degrees. Meanwhile, pound two chicken breasts until uniform thickness, sautee on both sides in a little butter, slice cooked chicken and mushroom caps, keep warm while stirring and heating a quarter cup or less of cream until it thickens, stir in the chicken and mushrooms, add a little coarse ground black pepper. You must use cream as half and half or milk will not thicken the sauce. Per serving it's not too caloric and the dish tastes wonderful.

    I stuff them with spinach, goat cheese and feta with a little lemon juice and breadcrumbs or oatmeal mixed in to make it stick, and then bake them. SO good.

    I pour a small amount of thousand island dressing in them and microwave a few minutes. Freaking yum.

    yep thats pretty much what i did, just add some marinera sauce or even salsa...so yummy!!
  • You don't have to cook anything in them ..... a little olive oil and a dot of butter. They will try out just like a burger! I use them often in place of ground beef in some things. Yum!

    I like to marinate them in red wine balsamic vinegar then grill/fry them.
  • Fetta and spinach is always great!
    I also like to cook it in a skillet lightly rubbed with light olive oil and use that as the meat in a sandwich with spinach instead of lettuce. Yumm!
