Portabella Pizza

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium-sized onion, thinly sliced
• 1 small red bell pepper, cut in strips
• 2 portabella mushroom caps, sliced
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon oregano or Italian seasoning, crushed
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 12-inch pre-baked pizza crust or one of your choice
• 1 1/2 cups shredded vegan soy mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees or prepare grill. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper; cook and stir until mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle 1 cup of the mozzarella over pizza crust; spoon mushroom mixture evenly over surface. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Place pizza on a baking sheet or pizza pan, or directly on grill. Bake or grill until soy cheese melts, about 7 minutes.

Serves: 6 to 8 slices
