You'll like this one.

I am extremely excited to share this recipe! It turned out so delicious and was incredibly easy to make. Both my kids really enjoyed it, too. Both. That might not mean anything to you, but if you knew my kids (mainly my two year old) then you'd be really impressed. Once you realize that it's a healthy, low calorie dinner, you'll be super impressed. These are Quinoa Pizza Stuffed Mushroom Caps:

Hello beautiful.

Like I said, these are very easy to make and they do taste remarkably like pizza, only without the crust. My seven year old loved them so much he immediately insisted I have my own cooking show. These are the only ingredients you'll need:

1 cup uncooked quinoa

1 1/2 cup water

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/2 small onion

1 cup baby spinach

1 1/2 - 2 cups red pizza sauce

a good handful of turkey pepperoni, roughly chopped

1 1/2 cup low fat mozzarella cheese 

5 large portobello mushroom caps.

Bring your water to a boil and add quinoa. Boil the quinoa in the water for about 10-15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for about 5 minutes. While all that's going on, cook the onions in a saute pan with the olive oil until the onions are nearly translucent. Add your baby spinach and cook until the spinach is wilted nicely. Now mix your cooked quinoa, onions and spinach together along with your handful of chopped pepperoni, the pizza sauce (adjust the amount of sauce based on your particular taste. I liked using more), and 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese.  

Prep your mushroom caps by scooping out the ribs and removing any stem that might remain. They should look like adorable miniature cups. Spoon the quinoa mixture evenly into each one - mine made about 5 mushroom caps, and I stuffed them quite full. Depending on the size of the caps, you may be able to make more. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the tops, place them on a baking sheet and bake at 375* for about 20-25 minutes. 

The great thing about this recipe is that it is completely customizable based on what you and your family love. I bet they'd be delicious with black olives and sausage, loaded with vegetables or with extra cheese!
