When buying portobellos, look for those with a tight underside and lighter colored gills. If the gill area appears very dark and spread out, it is a sign of age. And don't discard the thick woody stems; they make excellent stock or broth flavoring.

Ingredients

2 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp shallot(s), (about 1 large)
1/4 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1 1/2 tsp olive oil, divided
6 oz portobello mushroom(s), sliced
2 small zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise
1 loaf/loaves French baguette bread
1/2 cup(s) semisoft goat cheese, with herbs
1 tsp dried thyme
1 large tomato(es), thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Combine first 4 ingredients; stir well with a whisk.

  • Heat 11⁄2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place mushrooms in a single layer in pan; sauté 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until liquid is almost absorbed. Remove from pan and place in a large bowl. Cover and keep warm.

  • Add 1 teaspoon oil to pan and place over medium heat. Cut zucchini slices in half crosswise. Place half of zucchini slices in pan; sauté 7 to 9 minutes or until zucchini is lightly browned. Repeat with remaining zucchini and 1 teaspoon oil. Remove from heat and place in bowl with mushrooms. Drizzle with red wine vinegar mixture and remaining 1 teaspoon oil; toss gently.

  • Preheat broiler.

  • Cut baguette crosswise into 4 pieces; cut each piece in half lengthwise. Place slices on a baking sheet, cut sides up, and broil 1 minute or until toasted.

  • Combine goat cheese and thyme; spread evenly over toasted baguette slices. Layer 4 toast slices evenly with 1⁄4 of mushroom mixture and tomato slices. Top with remaining baguette slices. Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 sandwich).
