Ingredients

• 4 large Portobello mushrooms
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Gluten-free hamburger buns
• 1 large Avocado
• 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
• 1 large Tomato
• 1 small Red onion
• 4 slices Gluten-free cheese slices (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Clean the portobello mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any dirt.

Step 2

Remove the stems and use a spoon to scrape out the gills from the underside of each mushroom cap.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, tamari, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, and black pepper.

Step 4

Place the mushroom caps in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each mushroom is evenly coated. Allow the mushrooms to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Slice the avocado, tomato, and red onion. Set aside.

Step 7

Grill the mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks. If using gluten-free cheese slices, place a slice on each mushroom cap during the last minute of grilling.

Step 8

Toast the gluten-free hamburger buns on the grill for a couple of minutes until they are slightly crispy.

Step 9

Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a grilled mushroom cap, sliced avocado, tomato, and red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your gourmet, gluten-free mushroom burger!
