    Kimkins Portabello "Pizza"

    Recipe Introduction


    Authentic dishes aren't always necessarily traditional ones, especially when we're looking for low carb alternatives.

    Here's a twist on the traditional Portabello Pizza with reduced calories and carbs to make it even more delicious and weight loss friendly! Great for the grill, too! Try minced deli ham to save even more fat calories!

    Better yet, once cooked they freeze well and I've always got a quick "pizza" when I'm placing an order at the local pizza delivery for my boys. :)

    Ingredients

    Yields 1 "pizza"

    1 Portabello mushroom, stem chopped and set aside
    1 Roma tomato, peeled, seeded and mashed
    1 oz part skim mozzarella or parmesean, grated
    2 tbsp turkey pepperoni or sausage, finely minced
    1 tbsp each yellow & red bell pepper, chopped
    1 tsp fresh basil, chopped
    1 tsp garlic finely minced (jarred OK)
    1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
    1/2 tsp each onion powder, black pepper, salt

    Preheat oven broiler to 500 degrees.


    Mixed mashed tomato with Italian seasoning, garlic onion powder, pepper and salt, set aside. Broil mushrooms caps for 3-4 minutes under the broiler stem side down, then turn and grill the other side for 3 minutes.

    Remove from broiler and layer with tomato mixture, turkey pepperoni, mushroom stem, red bell pepper and top with mozzarella. Place filled mushrooms back in the broiler for 1-2 minutes until cheese is hot and bubbly.

    Remove from broiler, sprinkle with minced basil and let rest 2 minutes before serving. Enjoy! I add a side salad for lunch or dinner.
