Mash the cheese to a paste. Stir in the sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar and garlic. Season to taste.

Remove the stem from the mushroom and scrape out the gills with a small spoon. Score the tops in a cross-hatch pattern. Season the mushrooms with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Grill or broil, 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through.

Cut the romaine hearts in half and place on 4 plates. Drizzle with the dressing. Top with a mushroom and a piece of red pepper.
