Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- salt and pepper
- 2/3 cup olive oil
- 4 Portobello mushrooms (1 1/2 pounds), stems trimmed
- 3 heads endive, sliced crosswise
- 1/2 inch thick (about 4 cups)
- 8 oz. mesclun or mixed salad greens (about 10 cups)
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 oz. blue cheese
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

- Cut Portobello's 1/2 inch thick, and arrange a few slices over each serving.
