Instructions
Prepare the Portobello Caps
  1. Clean up the mushroom caps by brushing the tops or lightly rinsing them. Remove the stems, chop them, then add them to the diced white mushrooms. Set aside.
  2. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Brush or spray the Portobello caps with oil, top and underside.
  3. Place the caps on the hot grill and cook on each side for about 3 minutes.
  4. Remove the caps to a warm plate. Keep the grill hot OR preheat the over on broil, 450°F.
Prepare the Filling
  1. In a large fry pan, sauté the onion, garlic, salt and pepper in a combination of butter and cooking oil/spray until the garlic begins to brown (about 1-2 minutes). Stir in the seasonings.
  2. Add the ground turkey, breaking the meat up into small bits while cooking it until the meat is nearly done (about 5 minutes).
  3. Add the chopped mushrooms and stems, continuing to sauté and stir the mixture until the mushrooms are done (about 4 minutes).
  4. Stir in the tomato sauce and adjust seasoning to taste. Mix well, then stir in the grated Parmesan.
Stuff & Broil
  1. Place the mushroom caps on an oven-safe/grill-proof shallow baking pan/sheet, underside of the caps facing up.
  2. Layer a little of the shredded Italian cheese into each cap.
  3. Divide the hot filling among the 8 caps. Top with the remaining shredded cheese.
  4. Return to the grill OR broil in the oven for about 3-5 minutes, until the cheese has melted and begun to crisp up.
Alternatives
  1. Change the seasoning and/or cheeses to make these taste different each time. Beef or crab are also good protein fillers instead of ground turkey.
