Portabella Mushrooms with Balsamic Marinade—grilled or sautéed

We apologize as the recipe card program is currently experiencing some issues and will hopefully be fixed soon!
In the meantime, email me if you need a particular recipe card.

I saw these gorgeous Portabella mushrooms at Costco and it inspired me to make these easy, fresh and delicious mushrooms.

I sautéed them in a pan, but in summer just throw them on the grill for a healthy side.

Marinated Portabella Mushrooms

You can add 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme or dried basil to the marinate if you’re a fan of herbs.

I like to serve them with balsamic vinegar and olive oil or balsamic vinaigrette for the extra lettuce once I’ve eaten my share of the mushrooms!
