Why this recipe is so kid-friendly

Pizza with Mushrooms and Cheese brings together the subtle, earthy flavor of homegrown mushrooms with classic toppings like tomato and melting cheese. It’s nutritious – mushrooms provide vitamins and fiber – and quick to prepare. By using your MiniChamp mushrooms, you enjoy hyper-fresh ingredients straight from your own growing kit.

Ingredients (for 2-4 people)

  • 1 roll of ready-made pizza dough (or make your own with 250g flour, 1 sachet of yeast, 150ml lukewarm water and 2 tbsp olive oil)
  • 200g fresh MiniChamp mushrooms (freshly harvested from your growing kit!)
  • 200g tomato sauce (puree with herbs)
  • 200g grated mozzarella or young cheese
  • Optional: slices of pepperoni, corn or bell bell pepper for extra variety

Step-by-step recipe

1. Prepare dough
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Let the dough come to room temperature for 10 minutes. Roll it out on a floured work surface into a nice round or rectangular shape.
2. Prepare mushrooms
Briefly wash the MiniChamp mushrooms under running water and dry them. Cut into thin slices. This will preserve their texture and flavor when baking.
3. Distribute sauce and toppings
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the cheese on top and top with mushroom slices and any extras. Make patterns or keep it classic.
4. Baking
Bake 12-15 minutes until edges are golden brown and crisp. Let cool for 2 minutes before slicing.
5. Serve
Slice and enjoy immediately. Perfect with a fresh salad or as an appetizer.
