Grilled Balsamic Mushrooms and Polenta is a delicious vegetarian meal that's full of flavor and couldn't be easier to make.

Grilled Balsamic Mushrooms and Polenta is a simple, vegetarian grilled dinner full of marinated grilled mushrooms, tender grilled polenta, fresh arugula, and Parmesan cheese.

When it comes to vegetarian recipes, the two requests I get most often are for slow cooker recipes and grilling recipes. And since its summer, I decided to share one of my favorite meatless grilling recipes. It's seriously the easiest thing to make and the flavor of the earthy marinated mushrooms with the creamy polenta is so so good. And then there's the cheese of course. You could use Parmesan as the recipe suggests but I often switch it up with goat cheese, feta cheese, or burrata.

Cut the polenta into rounds and brush with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Remove the mushrooms from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Place the mushrooms and polenta slices on the grill. Cook on one side for 5 minutes and then flip. Cook the other side for five minutes or until mushrooms are tender.
Serve with arugula and Parmesan cheese.
