Ingredients:

8 portobello mushrooms, stems removed

2 cloves garlic, crushed

¼ cup shredded basil

2 tbsp olive oil

Bruschetta Mixture:

4 vine ripened tomatoes, deseeded and diced

½ spanish onion, finely diced

1 clove garlic, crushed (optional)

2 tbsp shredded basil leaves

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Salt and white pepper to taste

¼ cup parmesan cheese (optional)

Method:

1

Preheat the BBQ to a medium heat.

2

Place the mushrooms in a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil then gently massage the crushed garlic and shredded basil into the mushrooms. Set aside until ready to cook.

3

In the meantime, prepare the bruschetta mixture by combining the tomatoes, onion, garlic and basil in a bowl. Add the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper then stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate until required.

4

Place the mushrooms, cap side up on the preheated BBQ grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes before flipping and cooking on the gill side for 4-5 minutes. If you have an elevated BBQ tray, you may place the mushrooms on the tray and close the lid of the BBQ to cook for a further 2-3 minutes.

5

Remove the mushrooms from the BBQ and place on a serving dish. Fill the mushrooms with the bruschetta mixture and sprinkle with parmesan cheese, if using.
