Make the vinaigrette by lightly chopping one of the mushrooms and combining it with the parsley, basil, garlic, chipotle pepper, olive oil, and vinegar in the bowl of a food processor. Process until well combined. Toss greens with vinaigrette, reserving a little dressing. Place one grilled portobello on each salad plate. Top each portobello with a mound of greens. Drizzle remaining vinaigrette around the edges of the plates and garnish with walnuts.
