Follow The Directions
01
Step
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. (2 minutes)
02
Step
Gently clean the portobello mushroom caps with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Trim the stems so the mushrooms sit flat, resembling hamburger patties. (5 minutes)
03
Step
Wrap two slices of turkey bacon around each mushroom cap, securing the ends underneath the stem to prevent unraveling during baking. (5 minutes)
04
Step
Place the bacon-wrapped mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the mushrooms are tender and have released their juices. (15 minutes)
05
Step
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. (2 minutes)
06
Step
Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons of horseradish sauce on the top half of each hamburger bun, adjusting the amount to your preference. (2 minutes)
07
Step
Place a romaine lettuce leaf and a tomato slice on the bottom half of each bun. Top with the baked portobello mushroom burger and finish with the horseradish-slathered bun top. Serve immediately. (3 minutes)
For a vegetarian option, omit the turkey bacon and brush the portobello mushrooms with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a sprinkle of garlic powder before baking.
Add a slice of your favorite cheese (such as provolone, swiss, or mozzarella) during the last minute of baking for a melty, cheesy burger.
Experiment with different toppings such as caramelized onions, avocado slices, or roasted red peppers to customize your burger.
To prevent the buns from becoming soggy, lightly toast them before assembling the burgers.
