    Recipe Introduction


    1 Pizza; 3 Points per pizza

    List of Ingredients




    1 large (3-oz) portabella mushroom cap
    1/4 cup pasta sauce *
    1/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese
    Garlic (fresh or powder), to taste
    Dried basil, to taste
    fat-free cooking spray (olive oil flavor is best)

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    Wipe the cap clean of any dirt. Trim mushroom stem even with cap. (Or sometimes you can just pluck the stem right out!)

    Place mushroom cap on foil and bake for 5-10 minutes before you proceed with the toppings. Remove from oven. If you find juice on the top of the mushroom cap after you take it out of the oven, just pat it dry with a paper towel.

    (If you are using fresh garlic, you can either dice it very small or roast it til soft.)

    Spray both sides of the mushroom cap with cooking oil. Place on a baking dish, gill side up. Cover generously with the garlic and sauce, and then top with the cheese and dried basil. Place in the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is well melted. Broil for the last minute or two if you want your cheese browned on top. Serve immediately. (Most people prefer to eat this pizza with a knife and fork)

    Yields: 1 pizza (3 points per serving)
