roasted portobellos


this is an old dinner, but one well worth posting. a portobello salad from veganomicon (the book of vegan law).  the portobellos are roasted in the oven then placed atop a salad of greens, avocado, chickpeas, red onions, and a special dressing.  i can post the dressing recipe later, but, for now, here is the mushroom recipe.
 
1/2 cup cooking wine (i use red)
1 T olive oil
2 T bragg's liquid aminos or soy sauce
2 balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
2-4 portobellos, depending on size
 
preheat the oven to 400ºF.  marinate the portobellos for about 20 minutes in the smallest glass dish that will fit the mushrooms.  be sure to spoon some of the marinade into the caps.
cover the dish with foil and cook for 25 minutes.  remove foil, flip the caps, and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes.
 
if you don't want a salad, use your mushroom to enjoy a portobello burger.
