Portabella Mushrooms

For me there is nothing better than a grilled portabella mushroom. I grill them all summer long, making a perfect plant-based cheese burger! They are delicious!!

Our mushrooms come from River Valley Ranch in Burlington, Wisconsin. A great, local, third generation family farm.
