Portabella Mushroom Burger

This recipe is a homage to my favorite restaurant, Greens, in San Francisco. They offer a vegetarian menu that is so delightful you do not have to be vegetarian to enjoy it. This burger is made with portabella mushrooms and roasted veggies.

Notes

Chef's Tips: Feel free to "mix it up" by adding cheese or other kinds of veggies. Try to find a high quality bun for the burger; we happened to find a whole wheat brioche bun. You can add more protein or cheese or change the vegetables to suit your fancy.
