This portobello mushroom cap filled with tomatoes and guacamole is a dish so scrumptious (and simple), it would feature on my dream menu if I owned a restaurant.
RECIPE FOR ONE
- olive oil
- salt, to taste
- 1 portobello mushroom, stem and gills removed
- wedge of lemon
- 1/2 or one avocado, mashed with olive oil, salt and squeeze of lemon juice
Sauté mushroom (sprinkled with salt) in a splash of olive oil in pan for 5-8 minutes (or grill 8-10 minutes), turning mushroom over once about 1/2 way through. Remove from heat and fill inside of mushroom with three slices of tomato, then top with guacamole. Garnish with a few pieces of diced tomatoes. Ennnjoy!

I would’ve never thought of combining guacamole with mushrooms but they sound great together!

Beautiful! What a great idea. I can tell that this is one of those recipes that will be on my mind until I try it out. Portabellas and guacamole are a couple of my favorite foods.

I might try this raw and just marinate the mushroom instead of cooking it
Thanks for the amazing recipe.

I can imagine how creamy this would taste. Being a vegetarian I often incorporate portobello mushrooms into my burgers and rice dishes – but I never thought of this! Excited to try it, thanks for sharing.
