Oftentimes, I find wrap sandwiches to be a little boring and lacking in flavor. But not this vegetarian one. It’s loaded with big flavor. Meaty and smokey Portobellos, sweet onions, tangy and creamy goat cheese, and gorgeous sun-dried tomatoes.
A quick marination in some balsamic vinegar and olive oil perks up the flavor of the mushrooms and onions and a sprinkle of dried thyme is a nice complement.
I mixed some whipped cream cheese in with the goat cheese because I knew I wanted the sandwich to be oozing with cheese, but the flavor of goat cheese is too strong to use in large quantities. Once assembled, you can place the wraps back on the grill pan for a minute to warm the cheese.
Note: When I cook Portobellos, I remove the gills as they can be unappetizing and can discolor your dish. They can be easily scraped out with a knife or even a spoon.
