Portabella Pizza
These Portabella Pizzas merge indulgence with health, replacing the traditional carb-heavy crust with immune-boosting mushrooms brimming with antiviral properties.
Ingredients
- 6 Portabella mushroom caps
- ¾-1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup part-skim shredded mozzarella
- Dried oregano, optional
- Garlic powder, optional
- Parmesan, optional
- Fresh basil, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Remove mushroom stem and gills until you have a smooth beige-like surface (see instructions above). Mist a baking sheet with nonstick oil spray and place the mushroom caps on top, allowing adequate space between each cap so they can roast efficiently.
- Mist the tops with olive oil spray or alternatively, you can rub some olive oil directly on them, and sprinkle on salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder. Place in the oven and roast for about 20 minutes or until tender.
- Once the mushrooms are tender remove from oven and discard any remaining water. (I blot the tops with a layer of paper towels)
- Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons marinara inside each mushroom cap. Then, top with mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle on preferred seasonings and toppings (dried oregano, garlic powder, Parmesan) and place back in oven until cheese is melty and brown.
- Garnish with torn basil leaves or other minced herbs.
