Ingredients

6 portobello mushroom caps

1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
salt to taste

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil

Directions

1 Place mushrooms, red bell peppers, and red onion in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Whisk olive oil, lime juice, grill seasoning, garlic, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl; pour over vegetables. Toss to coat and allow vegetables to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
