Jon writes: "This pie has much to offer: a break from the usual red sauce base, a delicious combination of vegetables and cheeses, and a high level of protein and fat for those meat heads who fear they'll be hungry ten minutes after eating a veggie pie.
And for me, it uses the king of Italian blue cheeses, gorgonzola!
(Always try to use imported gorgonzola, but in a pinch, domestic will do)."

Ingredients

• Dough for one pizza
• 4 oz. low-fat mozzarella, shredded
• 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms (10-12 oz.)
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 4 Tablespoons Italian flat-leaf parsley, chopped
• 4 oz. gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Directions

1. Sauté mushrooms and garlic in olive oil until mushrooms give up their water.
2. Add parsley and cook until water is cooked off. Set aside.
3. Roll out pizza dough to desired size.
4. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the dough.
5. Spoon mushrooms and parsley evenly over dough.
6. Spread crumbled gorgonzola over dough.
7. Bake at 500 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes
   (preferably on a preheated Pizza Stone ).
