Portobello Mushroom Burgers

Instructions

Coat the portobello mushrooms lightly with the olive oil. Cover with salt, pepper, oregano and garlic salt. Set aside. Heat the grill on medium-high. Once the grill is hot, place two to three tablespoons of the olive oil on the mushrooms. Cook until heated through. Add the achiote salsa to the underside of the mushroom and top with grilled red onions and two pieces of mozzarella cheese. Leave mushrooms on grill until the cheese is melted. Serve on a bun with your choice of toppings.

Dice all of the ingredients finely. Add to a skillet and cook down to a paste, adding the salt, pepper and achiote paste. You can add this to a small food processor to blend it more after cooking it down if needed.
