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.

Remove from the oven, fill with pesto and pop them back into the oven for about 10 more minutes. Serve with a pile of rice or a tangle of noodles slicked with butter. There you have it: Satisfying and simple.

GRILLED PORTOBELLOS WITH PESTO, TOMATOES AND FETA



Grilled Portobellos With Pesto, Tomatoes and Feta image

Many thanks to my dear friend Joanna who served these beautiful and oh-so-flavorful mushroom "steaks" for dinner the other night. I thought I had died and gone to Vegetarian Heaven! We had them as the main course, but they can also be served as an appetizer or on a sandwich/burger. Joanna made her own pesto with fresh basil, toasted pine nuts and extra virgin olive oil. Prepared pesto will work fine, but if you can, I suggest making your own for the best flavor. These are super easy and you can make them ahead of time and refrigerate till ready to grill. Serving size indicates number of mushrooms. As an appetizer, one mushroom per serving will do, but for a main course I would recommend 4 servings of 2 mushrooms each. The recipe originated in Vegetarian Times and I'm posting here for safekeeping.

GRILLED FETA WITH NUTS



Grilled Feta With Nuts image

This skillet of warmed feta and nuts can tide guests over before dinner or embellish a meal of grilled lamb kebabs, mixed vegetables, pork or chicken. Inspired by saganaki, a fried-cheese appetizer from Greece, the feta here is surrounded by nuts, olive oil, honey and herbs. Thyme, oregano or za'atar adds earthiness to the salty feta and sweet honey, but you could incorporate orange or lemon peel, fresh or dried chile, or any other aromatics you like on spiced nuts. You could also trade the nuts for tomatoes, dates, salami or olives. Whatever you do, be sure to drizzle the herbed honey and oil over each spoonful of feta. (See this roasted feta recipe for oven instructions.)
