Portobello Mushroom Pizzas | Slimming Eats (2024)

Portobello Mushroom Pizzas - the perfect recipe for those pizza cravings, just add sauce, toppings of choice and cheese.

Nothing worse than those moments when you fancy pizza, only to remember you e, so can't use the usual tortilla or pita bread options for your base.

That's when a Portobello Mushroom Cap is a perfect choice for your favourite pizza toppings, and they take hardly any time or effort to make too.

Best part of all is mushrooms are a vegatable. So you really do not need any more excuses to make these Amazing Portobello Mushroom Pizzas.

Portobello Caps need a little prep before turning into a Portobello Mushroom Pizza, but it really doesn't take long at all, once you get used to removing the black gill part.

I just use a regular spoon and remove the stems (keep those, as you can chop them up to saute) and then gently scrap of the black gills with the spoon.

For the pizza sauce, you can either make the sauce as per the recipe or if you have some of this delicious Pizza sauce made up, that is perfect too. Hey, you could even use some of this barbecue sauce if you want a barbecue chicken type of pizza. Just think of all those variations you can try:
