How to cook deliciously - Portobello Pizzas

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the mushroom caps, stem side down (even though the stems have been removed), on a greased broiler-safe baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Bake the mushrooms for 20 to 25 minutes or until tender, turning over once halfway through cook time.

2. Stage

Meanwhile, cook the sausage over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink. Drain the grease from the skillet. Then, stir in the pizza sauce, green pepper, onion, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese and garlic.

3. Stage

Divide the topping mixture evenly among the portobello mushroom caps, and sprinkle evenly with mozzarella cheese.

4. Stage

Increase the oven setting to broil. Broil the portobello pizzas 2 to 3 inches from the heat for one to two minutes, until the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with basil if desired.
