This is a tasty treat. I think my mushrooms must have been smaller than yours because my topping ran out over the top. I would cut the parmesan as it was a bit salty for me. I don't eat processed meat so I subbed onions which were good. However, if I had had some bacon on hand I would have added some of that as well. One of my favorite treats is a portabella mushroom burger so I placed half of my mushroom pizza into a toasted bun and voila, so so good!! (so much for the low carb) Thanks for sharing your recipe and bringing something different into my kitchen. Made for PAC Orphanage Spring 2008.
