Portobello Mushroom Burgers With Mexican Slaw

Now and then, I crave burgers – who am I kidding, I’m always craving burgers, but as a fully signed up member of club grown-up, I realise that I can’t eat them every day. Now and then, though, I notice I’ve got some lonely little leftover Portobello mushrooms sitting in the fridge, and what better way to use those up than with a juicy vegetarian take on the old fashioned mushroom burger?

This mushroom burger recipe is simple stuff. I served it with some Mexican Slaw and a homemade ketchup/mayo/pickle combo, and it was delicious. It would also go well with some sweet potato wedges and a big old dollop of homemade tomato ketchup!
