Vegetable Stuffed Portobellos

I got a little crazy with the garlic on this recipe so it was a little strong and I was definitely not a fan of the rosemary... Other than that this was a pretty simple and yummy meal that the hubs and I both enjoyed. The kids were not fans of the portobello mushrooms, but they like the veggies that were on top!
