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!
