1. Heat a grill or grill pan. Combine the Mayonnaise, lemon juice, red peppers, and garlic. (For an uniformly red mayo, puree in a food processor.)
   
2. Rub the mushrooms with the olive oil, vinegar, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper. Grill, top side down, for 2-3 minutes, flip and immediately add the cheese.
