Portobello Pizzas


Portobello Pizzas

4 large Portobello mushroom caps
1 jar/can pizza sauce
2 c. mozzarella cheese
garlic powder
salt
  1. Heat oven to 375˚.
  2. Rinse mushroom caps, and remove dark gills from underside. I scrape them out with a spoon—if left in, these can make the mushrooms taste bitter.
  3. Salt mushroom caps lightly and bake at 375˚ for 10 minutes. Remove from oven. You may need to dab some of the juice out of the cap after baking.
  4. Add sauce....
  5. Add toppings and cheese...
  6. Bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until cheese browns to your liking. Serve immediately.





NOTE: These make a nice appetizer if you use smaller mushroom caps, but I served them on this night at a main course. They were amazingly tasty! In varying combinations, I used some deli ham, chopped breakfast sausages, mozzarella, Swiss, and a dash of Parmesan.
When I asked Casey what toppings he wanted on his, he asked me, "can I have mushrooms on my portobello pizza...?" LOL!
