YUM! I also love stuffed mushrooms, and this is a wonderful variation! The flavors come together wonderfully. I used basil and oregano for the italian seasoning. Thanks for sharing!

Like last reviewer, used large white button mushrooms, TRUE! Also had Tomato paste WITH herbs on hand too, Topped with parsley, these are GREAT! For entertaining, recipe is first rate!

Perfect! We love stuffed mushrooms, so when I saw Pizza in your recipe title, my interest piqued. I reduced the recipe to 1 dozen, and couldn't find baby portabellas locally and went with white button instead. I could make a meal out of these with a side salad. I can't wait to share these tasty morsels at our next get-together. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
