Portobello Mushroom Margherita Pizza

Skip to the recipe

Portobello mushrooms have a meaty texture that soaks up spices, herbs, and other flavorings like a sponge. It’s no wonder they’re a main course in many vegan and vegetarian restaurants. Mushrooms are a rare vegetable source of vitamin D and also contain high levels of potassium. The cheese and olive oil (the fats) in this recipe help you absorb that all-important vitamin D.
