Pizza Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms Recipes

Steps:

• Portobello Mushrooms - Wash, cut out stems, and set aside to dry.
• Add room temperature cream cheese, 5 teaspoons butter, Parmesan cheese, and blue cheese (opt) to a pot on low heat. Cook just until all melts together and mix well. Just a few minutes. Set aside and let it cool to room temp... will be lumpy.
• Pepperoni - Chop if they are the regular kind (I buy the minis). Cook in a skillet just until crisp on the edges, drain, and damp oil off. (I cook them so the oil doesn't saturate the cream filling while baking).
• Add 2 teaspoons of garlic and butter to the skillet and sauté for just a few minutes.
• Turn off the heat add mushroom caps. Coat the caps with butter and garlic sauce.
• Turn oven 350. Place caps on a baking sheet. Fill caps with cream mixture.
• Top with pepperoni and sliced fresh basil... and other pizza toppings like chopped onions, black olives, shredded cheeses, cherry tomatoes (optional).
• Place in oven for 10-15 mins.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Cook sausage, 1/2 cup pepperoni, onion, and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat until sausage is no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes. Add cream cheese, pizza sauce, and oregano; cook and stir until cream cheese has melted. Stir in Parmesan cheese and remove from the heat.
• Wipe mushrooms clean and remove and discard stems. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until mushrooms are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and top mushrooms with mozzarella and remaining 2 tablespoons pepperoni. Return to the oven until cheese is melted, 2 to 4 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• If mushrooms have stems, slice them off close to the caps.
• Brush caps with olive oil and place stem side up on a baking sheet.
• Sprinkle each with salt and pepper to taste.
• Spread each mushroom cap with 3 tablespoons spaghetti sauce and top each with 3 tablespoons of Mozzarella cheese.
• Scatter pepperoni pieces evenly over the Mozzarella and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and oregano.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until mushrooms are hot and cheese is lightly browned.
• Place stuffed Portobellos on toasted French bread slices and serve immediately.
• Note- You may also brown about 1/4 lb of Italian sausage to add to your pizzas if you'd like, or substitute whatever toppings are your favorites!

Steps:

• Remove and discard stems and gills from mushrooms; brush caps with oil. Place rounded sides down on an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 5 minutes., Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the pizza sauce, pepperoni, green pepper and 1-1/4 teaspoons Italian seasoning; spoon onto mushrooms. Sprinkle with cheese and remaining Italian seasoning. Bake for 8-12 minutes or until mushrooms are tender and cheese is bubbly.
