Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium heat.
Clean the portabella mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and gills using a spoon if desired.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Brush the mixture evenly over both sides of the mushroom caps.
Place the mushrooms gill-side down on the preheated grill. Grill for 5-6 minutes, then flip them over.
While the mushrooms are grilling, slice the fresh mozzarella into rounds and the Roma tomatoes into thin slices.
After flipping the mushrooms, top each mushroom cap with 2 slices of fresh mozzarella and 2 slices of tomato.
Close the grill lid or cover with foil for 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the mushrooms from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate.
Garnish each mushroom cap with fresh basil leaves and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
Serve immediately and enjoy this hearty, veggie-forward dish!
