Ingredients

  • 2 large portobello mushrooms wiped clean
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 3 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • ½ tablespoon vegetarian green pesto
  • 2 ciabatta rolls
  • 6 cherry tomatoes sliced
  • a small handful of basil leaves
  • ¼ cup feta cheese (25g)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 392F / 200C
    Brush both sides of the mushrooms with the oil then with the balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
    Place the mushrooms stem side up on a small baking tray.
    Bake in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Split the ciabattas in half, brush a little oil over each one then toast the inside of both pieces on a hot griddle pan. 
    Spread the mayo over the bottom ciabatta.
  • When the mushrooms are roasted, carefully pat them dry if they are very wet.
    Place one mushroom on each ciabatta. Crumble over the feta then add the tomatoes and a couple of basil leaves.
    Place the remaining ciabatta on top on then serve immediately.
