Pesto Portobello Recipe

Ingredients
2 Portobello mushrooms, stems removed and chopped
4 T. olive oil plus more for drizzling.
1/4 red pepper, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, unpeeled
1/4 white onion, chopped
1/4 cup pesto (store bought is fine but I made a kale pesto for this)
1/2 – 1 cup cubed butternut squash
1 small yellow squash, diced
1 cup edamame, thawed
2 T. shredded parmesan cheese

Directions
Preheat oven to 425.  Toss both squash, red pepper and garlic with 1-2 T. olive oil.  Roast in the oven 10-12 minutes, until veggies are slightly browned. In the meantime, heat remaining olive oil over med. heat in a large pan, and add edamame, mushroom stems, onion, a dash of salt and pepper and cook until veggies are tender, approx. 5-7 minutes.  Remove roasted veggies from oven and turn oven temp to Bake, 400.  Line mushrooms with a generous helping of pesto. Toss roasted veggies with the onion mixture and add S+P to taste.  Add the mixture to the Portobello mushrooms, top with parmesan cheese, drizzle with olive oil then bake for 10-12 minutes. ENJOY!
