Clean the mushrooms with a wet paper towel and remove gills and dirt. Set aside on a plate.

Using a pastry brush, brush the marinade over the mushroom on all sides. Set aside to marinate.

Cut your toppings, I used red onions and tomatoes.

Bake the Portobello Mushroom Burger for 20 minutes. Add the pepper jack cheese in the last few seconds over the burger to melt the cheese.

Grill or toast your burger bun, and add all the toppings. Finish by drizzling a spoonful of the dressing over the burger. Serve the additional dressing on the side with the burger. Enjoy.
