Tips for Making Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms

• You could vary the filling ingredients according to your taste, just like preparing a conventional pizza. If you aren't a fan of black olives, leave them out, or replace with green olives.
• Stuffed mushrooms can also be made and assembled the night before, covered and chilled, then baked just before serving.
• Mushrooms are like sponges. When cleaning them, never submerge them in water or they'll absorb too much liquid. Use a brush to clean the exterior.
• Extra large mushroom caps were used in this recipe. If you use smaller mushrooms, the yield will be greater.
• Mushrooms will release liquid while baking. Carefully remove baked mushrooms to a paper towel to adsorb liquid before plating.
• A dreamy mushroom side dish option you may like are these Creamy Garlic Mushrooms from Diethood.
