Gluten Free Portabello Pizza with Goat Cheese

Portabello Pizzas are a quick and delicious pizza alternative that is naturally gluten free.  I love to load mine with pizza sauce, onions, bell peppers, pepperoni and creamy goat cheese.  However, these pizzas are great topped with whatever you like.


Portabello Pizza
for each pizza

1 portabello mushroom cap
1/4 cup pizza sauce
2 tbs chopped onion
2 tbs chopped bell pepper
4 slices turkey pepperoni, quartered
1/2 oz soft goat cheese
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Peel the outer layer off of the portabello (this outer layer can make the mushroom tough).
Using a spoon scoop out the gills and remove the stem taking care not to puncture the mushroom cap.
Bake the mushroom cap for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender.
Layer the sauce, desired toppings and cheese onto the mushroom cap.
Bake for 5 minutes or until the toppings are heated through.
Place under the broiler for a minute or so, watching carefully, until the cheese is melted and lightly browned.
