Day Eight - Portabella Pizzas

When Jim and I got married he very seriously told me that I had to promise to not come between him and his mistress.  He then informed me that his mistress was Pizza.  Seriously though that man loves pizza so much that we have probably eaten it once a week since we've lived together.  As I embarked on this journey I knew that pizza would be a weekly  part of this journey so I looked for an alternative.  Behold the Portabella Pizza!

Portabella Pizza

Ingredients

-4 large portabella mushroom caps
-small jar of sugar free pizza sauce
-toppings of choice

Directions

1.  Wash and dry caps.  Scoop out the gills with a spoon.
2.  Line a baking sheet with foil and put caps on scooped side up.
3.  Put meat topping of choice (I've done pepperoni (probably not clean!), ham, and italian sausage.  Pick one.)
4.  Put sauce over meat.
5.  Top with any veggies desired.  (I did green peppers.)
6.  Bake at 420 for 15-20 minutes



Makes 2 servings at $7 (depending on toppings) for a total of $3.50 per serving.

As for a husband friendly option I just make him pizza.  :)

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

  1. WoW! Your rockin' the pizzas! Who knew portalbellas could serve as the crust! Some sauteed spinach or basil leaves would be awesome! Possibilities endless!

  2. I'm going to make these tonight! I went to the natural food store that I worked at a few years back and was giving so portalbellas for free!! The lovely women that owns the store said that she was going to take them home and freeze them because they where starting to dry out, super nice of her. I'm going to use some spicy venison sausage that my friend made and some caramelized onions. I can't wait to try this one out!! Happy eating!
