Portobello mushroom buns are a healthy and flavorful alternative to traditional hamburger buns. These buns are made using large Portobello mushroom caps, which are filled with your favorite burger toppings. They are low-carb, keto-friendly, and gluten-free, making them a great option for people with dietary restrictions. In this article, we will provide a recipe for making Portobello mushroom buns at home.
