What makes this mushroom pizza so easy <\/h2>\n

When it comes to pizza night, I don\u2019t like to overcomplicate things. I want pizza fast, but I also like more upscale pizzas with elevated flavors. <\/p>\n

This recipe meets that mark because it uses fresh varietal mushrooms with some pre-made ingredients.<\/p>\n

And the best part is that you don\u2019t have to pre-cook the mushrooms. Because this pizza is drizzled with an herbaceous olive oil, the mushrooms are soft and tender and packed with flavor. <\/p>\n

    Ingredients<\/h2>\n
    \"mushroom\"mushroom <\/source><\/picture><\/figure>\n
      \n
    • Mushrooms:<\/strong> For the most robust flavor, use a combination of different types of mushrooms. I like cremini, shiitake and oyster mushrooms. Others that are tasty include button mushrooms, portobello mushrooms and chanterelle.<\/li>\n
    • Pizza Dough: <\/strong>Feel free to make your own. As a time saver, you can also buy a dough ball in the deli section of your grocery store. Or look for pizza crust dough in the refrigerator section near the biscuits.<\/li>\n
    • Alfredo Sauce:<\/strong> Save yourself time and just buy the premade sauce either in the spaghetti sauce section or the refrigerated pasta section. <\/li>\n
    • Fresh Garlic<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Olive Oil<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Italian Seasoning<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Kosher Salt<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Red Pepper Flakes<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      SUBSTITUTIONS: <\/strong>Feel free to use different cheeses if you like. Fontina cheese and goat cheese are great options. In place of the Italian seasoning, you can also use minced fresh herbs. <\/pre>\n

                  \n
                  \n
                  Do you cook mushrooms before putting them on pizza?<\/strong> <\/p>\n
                  You absolutely can cook the mushrooms in a large skillet with butter or olive oil, but you don\u2019t need to. When I worked at Little Caesar\u2019s as a teen, we always put raw mushrooms on the pizza. By drizzling olive oil on top before it bakes, the mushrooms will be tender and juicy. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
                  What kind of mushrooms go on pizza?<\/strong> <\/p>\n
                  Virtually any fresh mushrooms can go on a pizza. Button, crimini and portobello mushrooms can be found in most grocery stores. For more variety, look for oyster and shiitake mushrooms. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
                  What sauce goes with mushroom pizza?<\/strong> <\/p>\n
                  Use your favorite pizza sauce. Mushroom pizza can be made with tomato sauce, white sauce like Alfredo or a simple drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Personally, I like it with white sauce. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
