Personal Portobello Pizzas for Punks



Yes, I did add the punks in the title just for alliteration. What can I say, I'm a sucker for the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. I'm also a sucker for easy meals with few ingredients, which this one is. It's on the healthier side too, which doesn't hurt.

Ingredients
2 portobello mushroom caps, stems removed
a handful of tomatoes (I used grape and cherry heirloom), sliced
Mozzarella cheese
Pesto
Olive oil
salt & pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 375. Lightly coat mushroom caps with EVOO and bake for five minutes.

Remove, and top the underside with pesto. Use as much or as little as you'd like. I think I used about a tablespoon for each side. Top with mozzarella cheese (I added two slices to each because cheese is life) and tomato slices.

Broil for an additional five minutes, keeping a close eye on it. That's it!

If it gets a little watery, just drain it off in between.

Mushrooms are fun guys.
They like pizza parties too. 
Fire up the oven.
