PESTO-STUFFED GRILLED PORTOBELLOS



Pesto-Stuffed Grilled Portobellos image

Pesto-stuffed grilled portobellos make for the perfect summer outdoor meal. It stands alone as vegetarian fare if you serve it with fresh fruit (such as watermelon chunks and blueberries); I love it with cedar-plank grilled salmon as well. You will think you've died and gone to heaven.
