Steps:

• Toast bread in 350 degree F oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Rub lightly with garlic clove while still warm.
• Remove gills from mushrooms with spoon and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices. In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook mushrooms until softened, then add garlic stirring, until all liquid mushrooms give off is evaporated, about 5 minutes.

• Cut tomatoes in quarters, combine red onion, basil, vinegar, olive oil. Season, to taste, and let marinate for 15 minutes.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS WITH TOMATOES AND FRESH MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat).
• Drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil over both sides of the mushrooms. Sprinkle the mushrooms with salt and pepper. Drizzle olive oil on grill pan to prevent mushrooms from sticking. Grill until the mushrooms are heated through and tender, about 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, whisk the extra-virgin olive oil and garlic in a medium bowl to blend. Add the tomatoes, cheese, and basil and toss to coat. Season the tomato salad, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Place 1 hot grilled mushroom gill side up on each of 4 plates. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper. Spoon the tomato salad atop the mushrooms, drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil to finish, about 1 tablespoon and serve.

GRILLED PORTABELLO MUSHROOM BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Clean the portabellas by wiping them with damp paper towels or a damp cloth. Remove the stems and chop them.
• Sautee the chopped stems and garlic in olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon of the lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. You could do this ahead of time.
• Brush the tops of the portabellas lightly with olive oil and place them top down on a moderately hot BBQ grill for about ten minutes, until their edges show browned grill marks.
• Turn the mushrooms over and spread the stem and garlic mixture over their undersides (brush on some more olive oil too if you like). Grill for another five or so minutes.
• Remove the cooked mushrooms from the grill, drizzle with the remaining lemon juice and set them aside to cool down.
• Meanwhile slice your baguette and lightly toast them (this works for me on the top rack of the BBQ for just a few minutes).
• Once the mushrooms are cool enough to handle, cut them into quarters or slice them. Arrange the pieces on the slices of toasted baguette, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
