Cook’s Note

This dish makes a great appetizer or hors d'ouevre. To serve as an appetizer or hors d'ouevre, cut the portobellos in half. If you want to serve this as a meal, leave the pizzas whole. The yield is 4 servings as an appetizer or hors d'oeuvre and 2 servings as a main course.

I love mushrooms and i found this recipe and thought it was a stroke of luck. I love this as an after school snack and appetizer and because my family is a sucker for extra sharp chedar we substitute that for the mozzerella <br />
