Recipe: Portabella Pizza

 
Ohhh my goodness! Doesn't that look delicious?! It was - my husband can confirm! These Portabella Pizzas are great for those late night pizza cravings. These allow you to give into your pizza cravings, but keep you on track with your diet/fitness goals. Portabella mushrooms are low-calorie and low-fat, packed with a high count in fiber, potassium, and B vitamins.
 
I had created this great short video to show you how to prep the mushrooms, but Instagram decided to shut down on me which resulted in me losing it. These aren't that hard to make, and they are customizable so you can top them with whatever topping you'd like! These are a must try!
 


Ingredients:
  • Portabella Mushroom Caps
  • Your favorite pizza sauce
  • Toppings of your choice (I used low-fat mozzarella, sauteed onions, and mini turkey pepperoni)
  • Seasoning
 
Instructions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Remove the ribs and the short stem from the caps.
  3. Place caps on non-stick baking pan. Sprinkle the caps with garlic powder and place into oven for 8 minutes.
  4. Take caps out of oven and use a paper towel to remove any excess water. (You may not see any water, but do anyway).
  5. Put back into the oven for 8 minutes, and use another paper towl to remove water.
  6. Now it's time to have some fun! These are your pizzas so top them with whatever toppings you wish! As stated above, I topped mine with some low-fat mozzerella, sauteed onions, and mini turkey pepperoni and a little basil.
  7. Place back into oven for about 8-10 minutes, or under broiler until cheese is melted.
  8. Enjoy, guilt-free!


These bad boys clocked in under 200 calories! Yes, all THREE of them! They were so flavorful and delicious. I even paired these pizzas with some sweet potato fries! What toppings would you add to these Portabella Mushrooms? Comment below!
