Portobello Appetizers



This is another delicious appetizer to make for a dinner party, cookout, or to take along to a picnic. It tastes best fresh out of the over, but still tastes good if cooled. These are also very healthy!
Items needed:
  • baby portobello mushrooms
  • mozzarella cheese (I use part-skim)
  • turkey pepperoni slices
  • black olive slices
Directions:
Cut stems out of mushrooms.


Fill mushroom cups with mozzarella cheese.

    Place a turkey pepperoni slice and black olives over each cheese-filled mushroom.

    Bake @ 375 for about 10 minutes.

    You could also use large portabellos if desired! These are DELICIOUS and very filling.  If you opt to use large portabellos, you can add a little pizza sauce under the cheese and you have just made yourself the healthiest pizza ever - OR - add it to a bed of pasta and sauce!

    Large portabello added to pasta with sauteed onions and spinach on top

    The finished product if you're making the appetizer!

    These were a hit at our NYE party and a bigger hit with the family when I made the large ones for dinner!
