Ingredients
  

1 lb large portobello mushrooms, stems removed

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

½ cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.

    In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.

      Brush the portobello mushrooms on both sides with the oil mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Place them on the grill, gill side down.

        Grill the mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes, until tender and grill marks appear. Flip them halfway through.

          While the mushrooms are grilling, combine the cherry tomatoes, corn, and black beans in a large bowl. Drizzle with remaining oil mixture and toss to coat.

            Once the mushrooms are done grilling, remove them from the heat and fill each mushroom cap with the tomato, corn, and black bean mixture.

              If using, sprinkle cheddar cheese on top of the filled mushrooms and return them to the grill for another 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese.

                Remove from the grill, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
