Savory Waffle and Grilled Portobello Sandwich
Sun-dried tomatoes and chive waffles with grilled portobellos
Posted By Savita
Everyone loves waffle for breakfast but my family also loves to enjoy waffles for lunch. I often make savory waffles for breakfast which we eat with cilantro chutney and they taste so delicious. Last weekend, we were late for breakfast and it was almost brunch time. I decided to pair my savory waffles with some protein to make somewhat filling breakfast and only thing I could find in refrigerator was some portobello caps.
When we are on meat-free diet, all kind of meaty texture ingredients find a place to stay in my refrigerator and portobello mushroom is one of them. Visit my home on a meat-less month and you will find my fridge stuffed with mushrooms (lots of them). So I made these grilled portobello and waffle sandwiches, totally delicious and so very addictive. Initially, it was a quick fix and after eating them, I think, I will be bringing Portobello specially to make these sandwiches.
