Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Trim stems of the mushrooms. With spoon, scrape and discard gills from mushroom caps.
  2. Brush with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange gill-sides up on foil-lined baking sheet. Roast 10 min.
  3. Meanwhile, slice or halve the cherry tomatoes.
  4. Carefully remove mushrooms from oven. Drain off any excess liquid in mushroom caps. Divide the pasta sauce among mushrooms.
  5. Top with the shredded mozzarella and cherry tomatoes. Roast 8–10 min., until mushrooms are tender and vegan cheese is melty.
