Ingredients Needed

  • 4 large Portobello mushrooms
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup basil pesto
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation Steps

Start by cleaning the Portobello mushrooms with a damp cloth. Remove the stems and brush the caps with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Grill the mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are tender and have nice grill marks. Remove them from the grill and let them cool slightly.

While the mushrooms are cooling, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. Spread a generous layer of basil pesto on each tortilla.

Slice the grilled Portobello mushrooms into strips and distribute them evenly over the pesto-covered tortillas. Add fresh spinach leaves and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella if using.

Roll up each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go. You can secure them with toothpicks if needed.

Serving Suggestions

Cut the wraps in half diagonally for an attractive presentation. Serve immediately with a side salad or your favorite dipping sauce. These wraps are also perfect for packing in a lunchbox or taking on a picnic.

Tips for Success

  • Use fresh basil pesto for the best flavor.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like roasted peppers or sun-dried tomatoes.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian option, skip the cheese or substitute with vegan cheese.
  • For extra protein, add grilled chicken or chickpeas.

Enjoy these flavorful grilled Portobello mushroom and pesto tortilla wraps as a healthy, satisfying meal any day of the week!
