Mushrooms <3 National Pizza Month

Pizza: the ultimate customizable meal. Whether stuffed, thin, deep dish, red sauce, white sauce, vegetarian, meat-loaded, “all-the-toppings” or “cheese only, please!” we can all agree that pizza is a culinary treasure.

Not only do we love pizza for being a perfect vehicle for mushrooms, but also for its ease and versatility! Add it to your weeknight menu for a family-friendly dinner or throw it on the grill for your home tailgate parties with friends. No matter the occasion, pizza is the answer. Add umami-rich mushrooms to the equation, and you’ve got something heavenly on your hands.

If pizza owns a slice of your heart, then you’re in luck: October is National Pizza Month. Simply top your pizza with your favorite mushroom variety or try your hand at one (or all!) of the mushroom pizza recipes below.
