The ICR program at IMMC teaches patients how simple meal swaps and plant-forward meals can support heart health and long-term wellness.

This week’s ICR Recipe of the Week features a Grilled Portobello Burger.

Burger night gets a healthy upgrade with this flavorful Grilled Portobello Burger from the Intensive Cardiac Rehab program.

Portobello mushrooms offer a satisfying texture and savory flavor while helping reduce saturated fat compared to traditional burgers.

Why This Recipe Supports Heart Health

  • Portobello mushrooms provide nutrients and fiber
    • Whole grain bread adds complex carbohydrates and fiber
    • Fresh vegetables increase vitamins and antioxidants
    • Greek yogurt-based sauce lowers saturated fat

You could also wrap sliced grilled mushrooms in a whole grain tortilla or lavash flatbread for a different serving option.
