Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cut off the stems of each mushroom and set aside for another use. Wipe the mushroom caps with a wet paper towel.

Step 2

Mix together the pesto and olive oil. Place the caps on a lightly oiled baking sheet and brush each cap lightly with some of the pesto oil.

Step 3

Bake the caps for about 20 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Slice the tomato into 4 equal slices and place one on each mushroom cap. Brush with a little more of the oil, and bake an additional 10 minutes.

Step 4

Place a slice of cheese on each mushroom stack and bake until melted. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This was delicious! The mushroom was just chewy enough that it almost tasted like a piece of pizza without the crust! Now I know what to do when I am low-carbing and have the pizza craves or am entertaining gluten intolerant friends and want to serve pizza (but don't have any gluten free crust!) Thanks for sharing-
