Servings: persons

3 large bell peppers (mix of red, yellow and orange)
1 large green Italian pepper
2 large Spanish onions
1 medium head radicchio
1 large head endive
4 large Portobello mushrooms, stems removed
1/4 cup olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
4 hero rolls
Black Olive Dressing (see below)
Black Olive Dressing:
1/2 cup cracked, pitted cured, black olives
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar

1
Heat the grill to medium-hot and position a vegetable grill rack on it. Place the peppers on the rack and roast, turning them over as necessary, until all sides are charred.
2
Meanwhile, prepare the other vegetables. Slice the onions into rings about 1/4-inch thick. Cut off the roots of the radicchio and endive and separate the leaves. Place the leaves, mushrooms, and onion rings in a medium bowl. Toss with the olive oil, making sure everything is well coated (sdd more oil, if necessary), and season with salt and pepper.
3
Place all the vegetables on the vegetable rack and cook until they are all tender and brownish on both sides. (Watch the radicchio and endive-they brown within a minute or two.) Remove from the rack and keep warm.
4
Allow the peppers to cool. When they can be handled, peel and seed them and tear them into strips. If you like, toast the rolls briefly on the grill. Place a mushroom in each roll, along with equal amounts of onions and peppers. Top with Black Olive Dressing. Serve warm.
