Ingredients

4 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 slices smoked provolone cheese
4 hamburger buns
4 lettuce leaves
1 large tomato, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, smoked paprika, and minced garlic.
