Servings 1
Calories 1121 kcal

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large portobello mushroom caps, stems and gills removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper, divided
  • 2 slices bacon
  • 6 ounces ground beef
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 slices cheddar cheese, or cheese of your preference
  • 1 slice tomato
  • ¼ cup mixed greens or arugula
  • 1 tablespoon reduced-sugar ketchup

Instructions
 

  • Put the portobello mushroom caps in a bowl or shallow dish and add the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and half of the salt and pepper; marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Cook the bacon in a skillet at medium-low heat until crispy, flipping over a couple of times to evenly cook each side. Set aside for later use as a topping.
  • Turn the grill on medium-high heat (about 200-300 degrees). In a bowl, mix together the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, and the rest of the salt and pepper. Form into a patty, ideally not quite as wide as the portobello “buns.”
  • Put the portobello mushrooms and the burger on the grill (you may need to do this separately if you are preparing multiple servings). Cook the portobello mushrooms for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are soft and heated through. The burger will take about 5-6 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Put the cheese on the burger for the last minute of cooking to melt.
  • Assemble your burger with the bacon and the rest of the toppings between the portobello mushrooms.
