I saw these divine portobello mushrooms in the supermarket and I had to buy them so I could make burgers. I served them with pesto and a salad on the side for a perfect, summer inspired and clean meal. You can prepare a double batch so that you have some to grab later for a quick, pre-prepared meal. Just my style!

How To Make Clean Eating Portobello Burgers With Pea Pesto [Vegan]
- Pre heat the oven to 400ºF degrees and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.
- Clean mushrooms by brushing them off with a paper towel and scrape out the stem if it is very large.
- Brush oil evenly over the mushrooms and put them on the tray, stem-side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Leave them to sit for 15-20 minutes, or until tender when you touch them.
- To make the salad, slice the onion and put it in a glass jar with vinegar and leave it there for a while while you slice the peppers.
- When all peppers are sliced, add them to the onion and then toss them with olive oil. Add the salt and pepper.
- To make the pesto, just mix all ingredients in food processor. Check salt, adjusting to taste.
- To assemble the burgers, smear one side of the bun with dijon mustard and put pesto on the other side. Put a portobello, peppers salad and spinach and then dig in!
