Wow, what an easy recipe and a great appetizer/finger food for parties! Basically pizza topping stuffed any veggie works. You can play around with using green peppers or tomatoes and do the same thing (of course cooking time ill be different). Thanks to keto mojo for the recipe!

Ingredients List

  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 tsp minced garlic

  • 6 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed

  • 1 cup no sugar added tomato sauce (my favorite brand is Rayos)

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh basil, for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the olive oil and garlic; then add the mushrooms to the bowl. Rub the oil all over the mushrooms and place them gill-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

  • Broil the mushrooms until they are tender, turning once, about 4 minutes in total.

  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and evenly divide the tomato sauce among the mushroom caps, spreading it on the gill side. Then top with the mozzarella cheese.

  • Broil the mushrooms until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 1 to 2 minutes.

  • Serve topped with the basil.
