Really yummy! I don't like football, but I love party food, so I made these for my husband & son for Super Bowl Sunday. I didn't grill them first (February in MN in an apartment) and that may have made a difference, but they kind of collapsed and flattened, and lost a lot of juice. They were still fantastic though. Great for a light lunch or as a side with a steak, as mentioned. Thanks!

These were absolutely delicious!!! I folled the recipe exactly.....except --- I had 2 HUGE portobellos, used my own italian breadcrumbs, and I did NOT grill them before. I agree that next time I make them, I'll try grilling first. Even without, they were the BEST! Thanks Nimz for the great recipe :-)

I was one of the original members of Recipezaar that was truly a community of individuals that enjoyed each other in forums and chat rooms. I've been a member of this site since 2003. Made some tremendous friends that I still think of often. I'll continue coming here because my recipes are here and so many more that I tried over the years as a member. It's just a tad boring now and just another recipe site like all the rest. Sad.
