Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 8 oz. packages sliced mushrooms (baby bellas or white button work well)
  • 3 cloves garlic (grated)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary (minced)
  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 pound ball whole grain pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • slices fresh arugula and red onion (optional garnish)

Instruction

  • If using a pizza stone, place in the bottom rack of cold oven to prevent cracking.
  • Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil. Sprinkle mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet along with garlic, rosemary, olive oil, salt and chili flakes.
  • Using your hands, toss mushrooms until evenly coated with oil and seasonings. Roast mushrooms for 10-12 minutes or until caramelized; set aside.
  • Sprinkle corn meal or flour on a pizza peel or piece of parchment paper. Stretch out dough until you get a nice round circle.
  • Using a spoon, spread pizza sauce all over the center of the dough, leaving 1 inch border for the crust. Sprinkle evenly with cheese then top with roasted mushrooms.
  • Carefully transfer pizza to the pre-heated stone in the oven (or an oiled baking sheet) and bake until cheese is bubbly and golden brown, 12-14 minutes.
  • Using a pizza wheel, slice into 8 pieces and serve with fresh arugula and onion slices.
