PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM PIZZA CUPS
Making stuffed portobellos for guys watching a hockey game was quite an endeavor. I made two dozen for six guys, and as the game got more exciting, they screamed for more. Scraping the gills from the underside of the mushroom is easy if you use a small teaspoon, gently, so as not to crack the cap. The amount of cheese, pepperoni and spices is entirely up to whatever satisfies your team. -Lorraine Caland, Shuniah, Ontario

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM PIZZA BITES
We've reimagined and super-sized stuffed mushrooms with this flavor-packed Portobello version. Sun-dried tomatoes (we especially love the ones packed in oil), add perfect pizza flavor. And like the mushrooms, they're high in umami, giving this vegetarian dish a satisfying meaty savoriness.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Scrape out the gills of the mushrooms with a spoon, being careful not to break the cap. Rub the mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of the oil and half the garlic. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon oregano. Place the mushrooms, gill-side up, on the prepared baking sheet, and roast until tender, 15 to 25 minutes. (If the mushrooms are thicker than 1 inch, they will take longer to cook.)
- Meanwhile, toss the bread pieces in a medium bowl with the remaining garlic, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the red pepper flakes. Transfer them to a medium skillet over medium heat, and stir until they turn golden and crisp on the edges, 5 to 6 minutes. Return the croutons to the bowl.
- While the mushrooms are still hot, pat them dry with a paper towel. Top each with 1 teaspoon tomato paste, spread evenly, and slices of mozzarella to cover. Divide the sun-dried tomatoes and croutons between the 4 mushrooms, and place in the oven to melt the cheese, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with basil leaves.
- Cut each mushroom into 4 to 8 pieces, depending on the size of the mushroom.

I found this on a blog called "A Dash of Sugar and Spice" and I'm posting for safe keeping. I think I'll make it some weekend my husband is at camp because he doesn't eat mushrooms! It's a good vegetarian dish that could easily go carnivore with the addition of chicken.

PORTOBELLO AND RED PEPPER PIZZA PIE
This is a great little gourmet pizza recipe.... Very easy to make and if you have pre-made pizza dough it assembles quickly and easily. The secret to it's gourmet taste is the fresh ingredients that are used -- the fresh mozzarella is a must. This pizza is perfect for those that do not care for red pizza sauce. Wine Suggestion: Dolcetto pairs especially well with Italian cuisine. Choose a fruity and robust dark red wine from the Alba region to accompany this pizza.

Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Bake until the cheese bubbles and starts to brown, about 10 to 15 minutes longer.
- If using a store bought crust; simply spread the peppers and mushrooms on the crust and sprinkle with garlic, black pepper and basil. Top with cheeses and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Bake until the cheese bubbles and starts to brown, about 10 to 15 minutes.
PORTOBELLO & KALE PIZZA
Don't expect to have leftovers when you make this tasty, and fairly healthy pizza. It is made on 100% whole wheat crust with a garlic sauce. I like to have the nutrition information from recipezaar (a.k.a. food.com) so I put all the steps into one recipe. Thanks go out to "Kiersten" on ohmyveggies.com, as this recipe is very closely modelled on hers. You can prepare the roasted garlic and toppings ahead of time to make the final preparation a bit easier as you want everything ready to go when the crust is rolled and ready.

PORTOBELLO "PIZZA" NICOISE
Steps:
- Chop the garlic cloves, then sprinkle with some salt and smear to a paste, using the side of your knife blade. Transfer the garlic paste to a bowl and stir in the vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Fold in the anchovies, basil, olives, capers and pepper flakes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature while you grill the vegetables.
- Heat a grill to high. Brush the red and yellow peppers with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, until charred on all sides and soft, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the peppers to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and let steam for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, put the tomatoes in a grill basket and grill, covered, tossing occasionally, until charred in spots and softened, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
- Brush the portobellos with canola oil and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill on both sides, covered, until a paring knife inserted in the center meets no resistance, 3 to 5 minutes per side. While the portobellos are cooking, peel, seed and thinly slice the peppers.
- Turn the portobellos gill-side up and top each with some of the goat cheese. Grill, covered, until the cheese softens, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and top each mushroom with some tomatoes and peppers. Spoon a generous amount of dressing over each "pizza" and serve warm.

Tips:
- Choose the right portobello mushrooms. Look for large, firm mushrooms with a deep, dark brown color. Avoid mushrooms that are cracked or bruised.
- Prepare the portobello mushrooms properly. Remove the stems and gills from the mushrooms. Then, brush the mushrooms with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper.
- Cook the portobello mushrooms thoroughly. Grill, broil, or pan-fry the mushrooms until they are tender and slightly charred.
- Use a variety of toppings. Portobello pizzas can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as cheese, vegetables, meats, and sauces. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
- Don't overload the pizza. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook.
- Bake the pizza at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust.
- Let the pizza cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the toppings from falling off.
Conclusion:
Portobello pizzas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they can be customized to suit your own taste. With a little creativity, you can create a portobello pizza that is sure to impress your family and friends.
