Love Portobello Mushrooms. Never put Parmesan cheese on mine. Sounds great. UPDATE: Like i had said sounds great and it was. Sorry i took so long getting back to it Dancer^, but the wait was worth it. Another keeper in the cookbook for sure.

It was pouring rain, with only portabellas in the fridge. The kids had just finished soccer, so pasta was ideal. I roasted the mushrooms at 425-450 for about 20 minutes. This is a great starter recipe - many combinations of herbs and flavors could be tested successfully - roasting works great if it's pouring rain outside!

Very good recipe and easy, too. This was my first attempt at cooking portabella mushrooms and we loved it.

YUM! This was amazing! I made a small adjustment to goat cheese crumbles instead of parmesan, as I didn't have parm. It was delicious. I also made the smaller portabellas, broiled them (thanks to another reviewer), and put them atop a chop salad of mixed greens and tomatoes. I will be making this again and again.

These were delicious and very flavorful! I think the balsamic is completely responsible for that. I halved the oil and added a clove of garlic to the marinade. We grated parmesan cheese on top when they came off the grill (maybe less than what is called for), and it immediately melted, so we didn't need to cook them with the cheese on them. This makes for a great side dish!
