I love the big portabello mushrooms we get in the vegebox. They are lovely make just seasoned and grilled in a cob. This time I decided to do a little extra with them by stuffing them. You could use sausage meat if you need the meat hit but I think I little blue or goats cheese, and herbs combined with some crunchy breadcrumbs give a great tasting burger replacement
For “burger” fixings a dash of ketchup , mustard or mayonnaise or all three is great, but I
fancied a fresh salsa a mix of finely chopped
fresh tomato , gherkins, red onion and pitted black olives.
Portabello Stuffed Mushroom Burgers

- Take 3 mushrooms finely chop together one of the mushrooms, stalks from all three mushrooms breadcrumbs , stilton cheese ,wholegrain mustard and fresh sage.

- Use the chopped ingredients to fill the caps of the two mushrooms
- Pop under a medium grill for 8 minutes until the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Fatnastic recipe – Here in the UK we are just starting to find out that burgers are more than a flat disc of minced meat with 50% fat ot other ingredients to bulk it out. We are really takinjg in the stuffed burger recipes and sauces from America – cannot wait to try this particular one – the photos look great!
