Grilled Portabella Sandwich With Gouda and Red Pepper Aioli image

We serve this at Micheal's Cafe in Duncannon, PA. It's an original creation by our late, great executive chef and name sake, Mike. It's by far my favorite item on the menu. I eat it nearly every day that I work. My recipe is my cheap-o take on his recipe. Their's is MUCH better. The red pepper aioli can be made and held in the refrigerator for a little while and it's really great on anything. I use the store bought pesto (Classico, in a jar near the pasta sauces) since I've never attempted to make it myself. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!!
