Portabella Harvest Pitas
 Portabella Harvest Pitas
 
 
4   medium (about 3 ounces each) portabella mushroom caps, gills removed  
1/2 cup    (appr.) Bottled balsamic vinaigrette, as needed  
3 cups    fresh spinach leaves, trimmed and torn  
1   large carrot, coarsely grated (about 1/2 cup)  
4   large (7 inch) whole-wheat pita pockets, warmed  
8 oz    sharp Cheddar cheese, sliced  
1   small tart apple, peeled, cored and thinly sliced  
1/4 cup    shelled, toasted and salted pumpkin seeds or walnuts, toasted  
 
1 Over medium heat, heat a grill pan or 12-inch skillet. Generously brush both sides of mushrooms with vinaigrette. Grill mushrooms until tender and liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes, turning once; drain on paper towels and slice.
2 In a medium bowl, combine spinach and carrot; toss with 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Cut off 1/3 of each pita; open with fingertips. Spoon spinach-carrot mixture, mushrooms, cheddar, apple and pumpkin seeds into pita pockets, dividing evenly.
