2 garlic cloves, minced

6 portobello mushroom caps (about 1 1/2 pounds)

Cooking spray

1 1/2 cups sliced onion

1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise

1 teaspoon bottled minced roasted garlic

Remove mushroom caps from bag, discarding marinade. Place mushroom caps on grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray; cook 5 minutes or until tender.
