D’s not a fussy eater but he does not like mushrooms at all and I don’t think there is a verb strong enough to express his loathing of blue cheese. I, on the other hand, love both and had an utterly divine lunch featuring both today. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Unless you are D, of course.
Preheat oven to 200 oC. Dot a field mushroom with butter and season. Cook in the oven for 15 minutes, basting occasionally. Remove mushroom from oven and top generously with blue cheese. Place back in oven for another 5 minutes until the blue cheese is oozy and bubbly. Eat in a floury bun topped with the roasting juices and large amounts of flat leafed parsley.
That is soo what I felt like today. I think it was after reading a blog about the perfect burger – that looks perfect to me!
Oh yum, mushrooms. I love them! Can never understand all those mushroom haters out there!
Wow, that looks delicious and so easy. I love mushrooms and blue cheese!
Nummers! Exactly the type of thing I love…and hubby would start dry retching if I even attempted to make it ;D Looks great, though…will have to keep the recipe in mind for when he goes away on a business trip sometime!
Ooooh, big mushroom burgers are fab. However, I’m like your husband with blue cheese!
for me it is just purgatory – not keen but there is a chance of heaven and I an not in hell – a bit like my kitchen right now
seriously – I am not that keen on mushrooms but they can surprise me in such a good way and I think I might just love this
Sounds absolutely marvellous. Very mouth watering.
Looks like my kind of heaven too!
Def. in the heaven camp for moi😉
Love mushroom burgers, but not a big fan of blue cheese, bet it would be good with feta though.
New follower from the States – loving your site!!
nothing quite like a floory bap to hold all that goodness
haha! My husband is the exact same when it comes to mushrooms. Whenever he’s not around for dinner I always take advantage of the situation and make something with mushrooms: last week it was total fungus-overload: Carluccio’s porcini flavoured fettucini with mushroom sauce AND fresh mushrooms…. YUM!😀
YUM. Two of my favorite flavors. My husband doesn’t like blue cheese either. Weirdo.
There’s this place in the park near us called the Shake Shack, and they do delicious old-fashioned burgers and hotdogs, but they also do a portobello mushroom burger I absolutely love. It’s raining (and snowing!) today here, so maybe I’ll stay home and make yours instead : )

Sounds yummy to me!
Looks scrumptious to me. Sadly I seem to have developed some kind of odd intolerance to mushrooms so have had to cut them out – I’m really missing them so this photo is taunting me!!
I love my mushrooms, and lately the wife has got into them in a big way which makes me happy, but I would have to stay away from the blue cheese.
That looks superb and sounds amazing.
I think I may have to try this out for my next solo lunch mission.
Yum!
Definitely my heaven too, I don’t understand why so many people don’t like mushrooms (particularly men I find)

Sorry for the late comment! Great post, we love mushrooms too, sometimes it is a question of breaking down boundaries like you’ve done above… Calling it a burger often helps!
