Makes 1 Serving

Ingredients

1 big portobello mushroom
seasoning salt
1/2 sweet red or green pepper
9 cherry tomatoes
1 teaspoon store-bought pesto
bread

Heat the grill to high while you're getting your veggies ready.
Sprinkle a little seasoning salt on your mushroom, remove the seeds from your pepper, and skewer your tomatoes.

Spread the pesto on your bread then top it with the grilled vegetables. So good! Add a medium corn on the cob for 2 points.
