Created for the 15th Ready, Set Cook! contest. For something different, saute some sausage and/or baby spinach along with the mushrooms. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon butter |
16 ounces white button mushrooms, fresh sliced |
2 tablespoons dry sherry |
1/2 tablespoon thyme |
4 heads roasted garlic, squeezed out of skins |
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese |
1 (5 1/3 ounce) package goat cheese |
10 ounces prepared pizza crust |
Directions:
1. It is easiest to roast the garlic immediately before making this recipe. If you preroasted it, turn on your oven and preheat to 400°F. 2. Heat the oil or butter in a large skillet. Add the mushrooms, sherry and thyme. Cook, stirring frequently, until mushrooms change color and are softer, but not significantly shrunken. Remove from heat. 3. In a bowl, combine the roasted garlic, cream cheese and goat cheese together (preferably when the garlic is still warm to melt everything together). Resist the temptation to use a food processor; mix by hand to maintain the chunks of roasted garlic. Spread mixture on top of the pizza crust. 4. Evenly distribute the mushrooms on top of the garlic-cheese spread. 5. Bake 15 minutes. Enjoy! |
