Grilled Portabella and Brie Burgers
Enjoy Grilled Portabella and Brie Burgers for a vegetarian burger option! Vegetables are marinated in balsamic vinegar then grilled to perfection!
We just got back from a nice long weekend visiting family up in the Panhandle…
Spent time with family at the beach, enjoyed some unbelievably fresh seafood from Joe Patti’s (caught right in the Gulf) and was able to relax a bit and come home feeling refreshed…I love that feeling. The Panhandle is a part of Florida we don’t get to often because of its distance, but it is such a gem with it’s emerald colored waters and powder soft beaches.
Before we left for our trip, I put together these awesome veggie sandwiches from the grill. I will admit I was the only one enjoying them while the rest of my family ate their hot dogs. This was “mommy food” and that is just fine with mommy…I made enough for lunch for a few days and was extremely happy with that.
I have nothing agains burgers and hot dogs, but grilled vegetables are my love language. Portabella mushrooms are such a great vegetarian option for the grill because of how hearty they are, you can easily put together some of these marinated mushrooms and vegetables anytime you find yourself in need of a meatless meal.
So so good!!

I tend to make vegetarian dishes for myself to take for lunches and then make other stuff for dinner for my boyfriend and me. While I'd love to just cook one thing sometimes, it's so nice to be able to make something tasty I know I'll enjoy all week and a tasty dinner too! Your sandwiches look great!
YUM – that looks amazing!!
So….what time is dinner, Aggie? These look absolutely mouthwatering. Delicious recipe once again.
Oh yummy, I can't wait to try this!
Those burgers looks like the best. That must have been nice to visit Panhandle.
These look SO GOOD! I must try them very soon!
This looks like the best sandwich ever! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
This looks soo good. I've never tried it but I soon will..
By the way, I think the cookbook arrived I've received a notice from the postman that I have a parcel to pick-up from the post office. I'm so excited!!
Yum! I would love one of these! I just love Portabella Burgers. The veggies and brie added are just terrific!
Looks perfect to me… and I am with you – "mommy food" is the way to go some nights!
Aggie….this looks AMAZING!! It would be the same way here for us. I would be enjoying this fantastic sandwich while all of my boys were eating hot dogs. I'm going to try this one ASAP!
I love portabella burgers… adding brie and grilled veggies takes them up a notch! They look great.
Welcome back! I'll take some mommy food! YUM! I love every part of this sandwich. I bet each bite just burst with flavor. This will be handy when the zucchini start rolling in this summer. That last photo is to die for! YUM!
grilled veggies with a delicious cheese – can't go wrong!
I usually prefer burgers on my burgers, but this is enough to convince me to try one of these!
this looks amazing! i think i'll try it soon.
I just recently made some portobello burgers for dinner with some cheese and roasted red peppers, but I love the addition of various marinated and grilled veggies. I am definitely going to try that next time.
I'm not a mommy but I would definitely enjoy them!
That is one nice looking burger!
Welcome back! That's my kind of burger, love the brie!
