4 servings Prep: 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 4 portobello mushroom caps, gills scraped
  • Extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO), for drizzling and brushing
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 cup drained jarred giardiniera salad (pickled vegetable salad)
  • 1/2 cup pitted green olives
  • 1/2 pound thinly sliced sweet sopressata
  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • 1/2 pound thinly sliced hot ham, such as capicola
  • 1 1 pound ball  smoked mozzarella
  • 4 cups mixed greens
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Directions

  1. Preheat a grill or broiler to medium-high. Brush the mushroom caps with EVOO, season with salt and pepper and grill, turning once, until tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, using a food processor, pulse the giardiniera and olives into a relish.
  3. Layer the mushroom caps with the sopressata, provolone, hot ham, relish and mozzarella. Grill, covered, or broil the muffuletta pizzas until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
  4. Dress the greens with the lemon juice and a drizzle of EVOO; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with the muffuletta pizzas.
