Grilled Portabella-Mozzarella Burgers With Bacon and Roasted Pep
- Ready In:
- 50mins
- Ingredients:
- 7
- Yields:
-
4 burgers
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 4 portabella mushroom caps
- 340.19 g bacon, uncured if possible
- 170.09 g fresh mozzarella balls
- 2 red bell peppers
- 5 minced garlic cloves (I use pre-chopped garlic in a jar)
- 118.29 ml Italian dressing
- 4 ciabatta rolls or 4 whole wheat hamburger buns
directions
- Wash portabella caps, place upside down on large baking tray, pour dressing and sprinkle garlic over them (does not need to be submerged in marinade). I sort of smear a bit of dressing around the other side of the portabella to coat.
- Halve and hollow out peppers, coat with some of the dressing/garlic and place alongside the portabellas. Set the tray aside.
- Cook the bacon. Simplest way is to arrange strips in baking tray and broil ~10 mins in oven (Warning: Burns easily).
- Slice mozzarella ball into thick pieces.
- Place pepper halves on grill for 5-10 mins and then add portabellas (~5-10 mins on each side), then place slices of cheese on portabellas until melted.
- Lightly toast rolls/bread/buns, and stack the portabella with melted cheese, bacon, and pepper half inside.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I usually take dishes I love from restaurants or friends and add my own twist.
I live with my husband, twin babies and four cats. I'm a part-time scientist and part-time stay-at-home mom, which keeps me busy and happy these days.
I try to eat and cook healthy, whole grains and veggies and fruits and avoid processed food (and I make all my babies' food that way). However, I have a weakness for white ciabatta bread dipped in olive oil, bacon, potato chips, and ramen noodle soup, meaning I don't always stick to my own rules.
