Portobello, Broccoli, and Red-Pepper Melts Print E-mail

ImageThe grill works double time to caramelize the veggies and melt the Gouda at the same time. I found this recipe on www.marthastewart.com and it works just as well on a thick slice of rye or ciabatta. Enjoy!

Ingredients

•    1 small head broccoli, cut into small florets (stalk discarded)
•    1 tbsp olive oil
•    coarse salt and ground pepper
•    4 Portobello mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
•    2 red bell peppers, sliced with ribs and seeds removed
•    1/4 cup light mayonnaise
•    1 small garlic clove, crushed through a press
•    4 thick slices country bread
•    4 ounces Gouda cheese, thinly sliced

Method

Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. On a rimmed baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, toss broccoli with oil; season with salt and pepper. Broil, tossing once or twice, until broccoli begins to char, 4 to 6 minutes.

Add mushrooms and bell peppers to sheet; season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Broil, tossing once or twice, until vegetables are tender, 8 to 10 minutes more; set aside.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Place bread on a work surface. Dividing evenly, spread with mayonnaise mixture, and top with vegetables, then cheese. Place on baking sheet, and broil until cheese is melted and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.
