Portabello Pizzas

A good size portabellow packs as much potassium as a banana. They are low in calories, just 27 in a medium size mushroom cap. Try using them instead of pizza crust for your next mini pizza snack or meal!

For each pizza you will need:

1 good size portabello mushroom cap...make sure you wipe the dirt off.
2 Tbsp of low sodium spaghetti, marinara or pizza sauce
4 slices of turkey pepperoni, or 1 tablespoon of diced turkey bacon
2 Tbsp of low fat mozarella cheese
Fresh chopped basil or 1/2 tsp of italian seasoning

Preheat oven to 350%.

Wipe any dirt off of your mushroom. Place mushroom with stem side facing up on a baking sheet. Bake in oven for 5 minutes.

Take out of oven and top with sauce, pepperoni, and cheese. Add fresh basil or italian seasoning. Place back in oven for another 6-8 minutes until cheese is bubbly.

I promise, this is very filling.
