My local Wegmans has an amazing pizza bar! I love their pizza, but I know that it isn’t the healthiest for me. I breezed past it this week and headed to produce where I saw this Portobello Pizza in their ready-made area! ZING! You know the feeling! I can make that and it will fill my pizza cravings without eating the big pizza from the bar. I can get all the pizza taste and satisfaction while still being (relatively) healthy! I left the guilt aside and felt great about the meal I was ready to make!

How to Make Portobello Sheet Pan Pizza in Under 20 Minutes

Combine the seasonings and olive oil in a small bowl and set aside.

Remove the stem and fins of the portobello mushroom with a spoon. It scrapes right out. You do not HAVE to remove that, but it frees up space for the pizza toppings.

Use a spoon to scrape out the fins under the mushroom cap. You don't need to get them all, but it frees up room for the margherita pizza toppings

Brush both sides of the portobello mushroom with the olive oil/seasoning mixture. The mushroom will absorb the olive oil faster than you can brush it on, but the herbs should stick, which is what you want! The olive oil will prevent the mushrooms from sticking to the pan.

Add the sauce and the cheese and place on the sheet pan.

Brush the top of the portobello mushroom to make sure it doesn't stick when you turn it over to start filling with pizza makings

Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Just keep watching for the cheese to melt and even start to brown a bit.

Don’t skip the herbs/seasonings as so much of the flavor is coming from there. It tastes like you visited a pizzeria. I actually think that is the hidden magic of the recipe!

How to Make a No-Cook Pizza Sauce in Under Five Minutes

Combine a 15 oz can of tomato sauce, 3 tbsp tomato paste and 1 tbsp of oregano into a small bowl and stir. BAM! It is ready to use on your pizza.

You don’t have to cook it, but you can choose to boil this on the stove top.  If you choose to boil this, it will become a tad thicker and will have a stronger taste. To keep this meal as quick and easy as possible, we chose the No-Cook Sauce method.

A few tablespoons of pizza sauce will start the pizza making

How to Meal Prep Portobello Mushroom Sheet Pan Pizza

This is a great one that you can meal prep and simply throw together when you get home! Let’s walk through the steps!

Meal Prep Version 1

  • Scoop out the mushrooms, brush on the olive oil/herb seasonings, pour in the sauce and top with cheese. Cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Remove about 15 minutes before you want to cook it or you will have to cook it longer and you don’t want it to burn. This is a true “toss in the oven when I get home type of meal prep.”

  • Measure out the olive oil and herbs/seasonings but don’t combine them.
  • When you get home, brush on the oil, and add the pizza toppings.
  • Prep your sheet pan and bake.
