Portabello Pizza And Sauce For One ~ Healthy Low Carb Substitute For Pizza

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2: Clean mushrooms by brushing any dirt off with a towel, and pull out the stem and scrape off the gills with a spoon.

Step 3: Place on baking pan, and bake for 7 minutes.

Step 4: While mushrooms are baking, grate Mozzarella. Mix the egg white in. (Usually low-fat cheese has trouble melting, so using the egg helps the cheese melt while adding some protein).

Step 5: Remove mushrooms from the oven, and turn the broiler to high.

Step 6: Layer first the pizza sauce, then cheese mixture, then olives and any other veggies you may want to add on, and top with pepperoni slices, then cheese.

Step 7: Return pan to oven and broil on high for 3 minutes, or until cheese melts and starts to brown.

Step 8: Healthy Pizza Sauce:

Step 9: Chop tomato into small pieces, and put in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute on high.

Step 10: Put tomatoes into a blender, then add Italian seasoning, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and salt to taste. Blend on high until smooth.

Step 11: Pour sauce back into the bowl, and microwave for 1 additional minute on high.
