Ingredients

  • 4 large portobello mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup uncooked spaghetti
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Optional: fresh herbs for garnish (like basil or parsley)

How to Make Grilled Portobello Mushroom Burger with Pasta

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture generously over each portobello mushroom cap.
  3. Place the mushrooms on the grill, gill side down. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, then flip and grill for an additional 5-7 minutes until tender and juicy.
  4. Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  5. In the same pot used for the pasta, add the fresh spinach and cook over medium heat until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add the drained spaghetti back into the pot with the wilted spinach and toss to combine.
  7. To assemble, place a grilled portobello mushroom on a plate and top with a generous handful of the spaghetti and spinach mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  8. Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Choose portobello mushrooms that are firm and unblemished for the best texture.
  • Let the mushrooms marinate in the olive oil mixture for 15-30 minutes if time allows for deeper flavor.
  • For added flavor, consider adding a splash of balsamic vinegar to the olive oil mixture.
  • If you prefer a vegan option, skip the cheese or use a dairy-free alternative.

Easy Variations

  • Swap out the cheddar for mozzarella or feta cheese for different flavor profiles.
  • Add other vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini to the pasta for extra nutrition.
  • Incorporate your favorite sauces, such as pesto or marinara, for a different twist.

What to Serve With It

  • A simple green salad with vinaigrette
  • Garlic bread or breadsticks
  • Roasted vegetables for a heartier side
  • A chilled glass of white wine or sparkling water

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat until warmed through.
