GRILLED CHEESE AND MUSHROOM SANDWICH

Steps:

Remove mushrooms; wipe out skillet., Spread 3 tablespoons butter on 1 side of each slice of bread. Place bread, butter side down, in same skillet over medium-low heat; toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes; remove. In a small bowl, combine cheddar, Monterey Jack and Gruyere. In another bowl, mix together remaining 3 tablespoons butter, mayonnaise, Manchego cheese and onion powder., To assemble sandwiches, top toasted side of 4 bread slices with mushrooms; sprinkle with fresh thyme; add sliced Brie. Sprinkle cheddar cheese mixture evenly over Brie. Top with remaining bread slices, toasted side facing inwards. Spread the butter-mayonnaise mixture on the outsides of each sandwich. Place in same skillet and cook until golden brown and cheese is melted, 5-6 minutes on each side. Serve immediately.

GRILLED MUSHROOM ANTIPASTO SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for high heat. Toss mushrooms and 3 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl to coat. Grill, turning occasionally with tongs, until lightly charred, 2-6 minutes (depending on size and type). Return to bowl; season with salt.
• Whisk vinegar, Aleppo-style pepper, oregano, garlic, and remaining 4 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl to combine; season vinaigrette with salt and black pepper. Pour over mushrooms and toss to coat. Add Parmesan, olives, and Peppadew peppers; gently toss to combine.

OPEN-FACE MUSHROOM SANDWICHES WITH PECORINO SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Special equipment
• Six-eight 10" metal skewers or bamboo skewers, soaked (optional)
• Pecorino salsa verde
• Toss shallots, vinegar, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a small bowl to combine; lightly season with salt (the Pecorino will add some saltiness, so bear that in mind). Let sit 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, very thinly slice Pecorino into tiles with a knife (irregular pieces are okay).
• Add Pecorino, herbs, and oil to pickled shallots and toss gently to combine. Taste and season with more salt if needed; set aside.
• Mushrooms and assembly
• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; clean grate. Working one at a time, set mushrooms on their sides and slice lengthwise ¼" thick to make 3-4 planks per mushroom, depending their size. If your mushrooms are particularly small or you are using crimini, slice ½" thick and thread onto skewers to keep them from falling through grate.
• Using some of the oil, brush cut sides of mushrooms and transfer to a large bowl or arrange on a rimmed baking sheet if skewered. Lightly brush both sides of each slice of bread with remaining oil and transfer to a platter.
• Press each slice of bread down across grate for even contact and grill until browned with some lightly charred spots, about 2 minutes per side. The goal is a crunchy exterior with a still chewy center. Transfer bread back to platter.
• Brush grate to clean. If using a gas grill, turn heat down to medium. A charcoal grill should be at the tail end of medium-high and headed toward medium at this point, but wait a few minutes if needed. Grill mushrooms, turning halfway through and moving around as needed to avoid flare-ups, until golden all over with lightly charred edges, 6-8 minutes for small pieces and 8-10 minutes for large ones. Return to bowl (slide off of skewers if needed). Add Pecorino salsa verde and toss to combine. Spoon mushroom mixture over grilled bread.

GRILLED MUSHROOM SALAD SUB

Steps:

• Cut each baguette in half cross-wise, then split lengthwise and remove some of the soft insides (discard or use in another dish).
• Preheat a grill pan to medium high heat or prepare outdoor grill.
• Preheat oven to 325°. Place the hollowed bread in oven to crisp for about 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk together sherry vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, extra-virgin olive oil and garlic. Place mushrooms in a shallow dish and pour marinade over the caps. Turn caps in marinade and season with salt and pepper. Let stand 10 minutes.

Thinly slice the mushrooms and transfer back to the dish you marinated them in and add parsley and spinch as you go, layering the hot mushrooms with the parsley and spinach. Once all the hot sliced mushrooms combine with the spinach, the greens will wilt a bit. Toss the salad and adjust the salt and pepper to your taste.
