Portabella Mushroom Pizza

I love this recipe because it satisfies my pizza craving, is gluten-free (good gluten-free pizza is hard to come by!) and healthier than the real deal.  It is also very family friendly, everyone can build their own!


Serves 2-4

Ingredients:
4 Portabella mushrooms (serves 2 if very hungry, 4 for a lighter meal/snack
1-2 cups of pizza or marinara sauce of choice
Cheese of choice, shredded (I like a layer of mozzarella and grated Parmesan on top)
1/4 -1/3 cup each of any or all of the following toppings, diced or chopped:  bell pepper, sweet onion, spinach, basil, black olives, artichoke hearts, or any other topping you like on your pizza
Red pepper flakes (optional)


Preheat oven by setting the broiler on low.  Cover baking sheet with parchment paper.  Remove stems of portabellas and gently run with a wet cloth to clean.  Place mushrooms belly side up on the baking sheet and spoon in pizza sauce (I like a lot of sauce!).  Sprinkle cheese and then veggies on top.  Broil in the oven on the middle rack for about 10-12 minutes.  Watch closely as broiler temperature varies.  Serve immediately.
