- 8 portobello mushrooms washed and sliced into ½ inch strips; see note 1
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon chili powder note 2
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional; for spicy kick
To serve
- tortillas
- pickled onions
- avocado slices
- chipotle mayo
- slaw
Prepare- Heat oven to 425°F. Toss sliced mushrooms with olive oil, then in onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and red pepper flakes (if you choose to use them).
Roast - Spread mushrooms out evenly on a sheet pan. Roast for 20-25 minutes, until browned and roasted through.
Assemble Tacos- Serve on tortillas with avocado slices, pickled onions, chipotle mayo and slaw.
- we left the gills intact, but if you'd prefer, you can scoop them out with a spoon; other mushrooms (cremini, button) work great in this recipe. 8 portobellos is roughly 680 grams/ 1.5 lbs.
- chili powder refers to the North American paprika-based blend and not pure powdered chiles.
- nutritional information is for ¼ of the batch of roasted portobello mushrooms
Assemble Ahead But Don't Cook
- Mix the mushrooms, oil and spices ahead of time and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Note: the mushrooms will brown while storing but they roast up great!
- When ready to cook, spread out the mushrooms on a sheet pan and roast. You might want to roast on convection if you've meal-prepped the mushrooms ahead, as they put off extra moisture after sitting in the fridge.
Reheat Meals
- Cook as directed, then store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. You will likely want to store the portobellos separately from the other ingredients to ensure freshness.
- Reheat in the microwave or frying pan until steaming hot, then serve in tacos as directed.
