Tips: DO NOT wash your mushroom with water, mushrooms are very absorbent and will just soak up all that water. Instead take a damp paper towel and wipe the dirt off the mushroom.

Remove stems from the mushrooms by twisting and pulling. Scrape out the gills (insides) by spoon. Wipe clean with a damp paper towel. Brush both side of the mushroom with olive oil and sprinkle the inside of each mushroom with salt and pepper.

Grill or bake the mushrooms. Remove mushrooms from oven or grill and top with pizza sauce and cheese and your choice of toppings. Return the mushroom to oven or grill and bake until cheese is bubbling.

Ingredients:

• 4 large Portobello mushrooms
• olive oil, for brushing
• 1 cup pizza or marinara sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for Vegan and Paleo style make sure to use dairy-free cheese)
• toppings of your choice
• pinch crushed red pepper flakes and Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions:

1- Remove stems from the mushrooms by twisting and pulling. Scrape out the gills (insides) by spoon. Wipe clean with a damp paper towel.
