Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Portabella mushroom caps
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 12 Pepperoni slices
- 6 Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (375°F to 400°F).
Gently clean the portabella mushroom caps with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Use a spoon to scrape out the gills if desired.
Brush both sides of the mushroom caps with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the mushroom caps on the preheated grill, gill-side down, and cook for 4-5 minutes.
Flip the mushrooms so the gill side faces up. Spread about 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce into each cap and evenly sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Top each mushroom with 3 pepperoni slices and close the grill lid. Cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the mushrooms from the grill and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy grilled portabella mushroom pizzas!
