Steps:
- Add the olive oil and balsamic vinegar to a small blender and blend well until smooth. Wash and pat dry the portobello caps and transfer them to a sealable container (or zip-lock bag) along with the balsamic marinade. Allow the mushrooms to marinate at least 15 minutes, up to 1 hour.
- Heat the grill to medium and brush the eggplant slices with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the portobello mushrooms and the eggplant on the hot grill and cover. Cook until grill marks appear, about 2 to 3 minutes for the eggplant and about 5 to 7 minutes for the mushrooms. Flip and continue cooking until vegetables are juicy, tender, and cooked through, about another 2 to 3 minutes for the eggplant and 5 to 7 minutes for the mushrooms. Transfer vegetables to a plate.
- Toast two buns with havarti cheese (or your choice) and layer with a grilled portobello mushroom, a few slices of eggplant, roasted red bell pepper, red onion, and arugula. Drizzle on desired amount of pesto sauce and serve.
CHEESE-STUFFED PORTOBELLO BURGER
The hidden surprise of melted cheese inside the crispy breaded mushroom pattie takes this vegetarian burger to new levels, as does a special mayonnaise that gets shmeared on the toasted brioche bun.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Brush both sides of mushrooms with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange mushrooms, gill-sides down, on sheet and roast, flipping once, until tender, 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool, then transfer to a cutting board, gill-sides down. Butterfly each by cutting horizontally through middle of cap, leaving one side intact. Open flaps and add cheese (if necessary, fold to fit.) Close flaps and gently press to seal with your palm.
- Place flour, egg, and panko in separate shallow bowls. Dip each stuffed mushroom in flour, then egg, turning to coat and shaking off excess. Then dip in panko, pressing to adhere.
- Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large straight-sided skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium until a panko crumb sizzles when tossed in. Working in two batches, cook mushrooms until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Transfer mushrooms to a wire rack set over a baking sheet; season with salt. Spread mayonnaise on buns. Top with mushroom burgers and arugula. Serve immediately.
