Easy Portobello Mushroom Pizzas

I cook up a turkey and kale mixture to add to the Portobello Mushrooms for added protein and nutrition. If you want to keep these pizzas super simple: just add pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese and pepperoni if desired and you can have your meal or snack ready in 10 minutes!
You will probably have some leftover filling. If you do, the mixture is great on it's own, with pasta, rice or even with spaghetti squash.

Ingredients

  • 6 portobello mushrooms  gills and stems removed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1 to 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 to 1 lb. ground turkey  depending on how much meat you want
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 to 3 cups kale  chopped, optional
  • 2 to 3 cups marinara sauce + more if needed
  • crushed red pepper flakes
  • shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F and prep a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large sauté pan or skillet. Add the onions and cook until tender. Add the garlic and toss for 30 seconds. Add the ground turkey and cook until all cooked through. Season with a little salt and pepper.
  • Add in the chopped kale. Feel free to drizzle a little olive oil over the kale. Cook until the kale has wilted. Add the marinara sauce (if you need to add more, feel free!) and the crushed red pepper flakes, mix together and let everything cook for a few minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Fill the portobello mushrooms with the turkey sauce mixture and top with the mozzarella cheese. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the mushrooms have softened slightly and the cheese is nice and melty. Remove from the oven and enjoy while hot!
