Ingredients<\/div>\n
    \n
  • 14-inch pizza dough<\/li>\n
  • 2 cups fresh arugula<\/li>\n
  • 1 large Lion’s Mane mushroom<\/li>\n
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil<\/li>\n
  • 2 2-ounce balls of burrata (substitute cashew cheese for vegan version)<\/li>\n
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan (substitute nutritional yeast for vegan version)<\/li>\n
  • 6 ounces of shredded mozzarella (sub vegan mozz)<\/li>\n
  • 2 beets (roasted and cooled)<\/li>\n
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce<\/li>\n
  • 3 tablespoons minced garlic<\/li>\n
  • 3 tablespoons butter (substitute plant-based butter for vegan version)<\/li>\n
  • Fresh thyme<\/li>\n
  • Salt and pepper to taste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    Instructions<\/div>\n
    \n
      \n
    1. In an immersion blender, mix roasted beets, 1 tablespoon of the minced garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, \u00bd cup water, soy sauce, salt and pepper to create a marinade and set aside.<\/li>\n
    2. In a skillet, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and begin to saut\u00e9 the lion\u2019s mane mushroom.<\/li>\n
    3. Take another heavy pan (cast-iron works well) press the mushroom down. Release pressed pan and give the mushroom a quarter turn.<\/li>\n
    4. Repeat until mushroom is golden brown and about 1 and \u00bd to 2 inches thick. You may need to add a little water to steam and help keep the mushroom from burning.<\/li>\n
    5. Flip over and brown the other side. Set aside to cool.<\/li>\n
    6. Place the marinade in a gallon plastic bag, add mushroom and let marinate in the refrigerator for one hour and up to overnight.<\/li>\n
    7. When you are ready to use the mushroom, remove from bag and release all excess moisture.<\/li>\n
    8. Pan sear the mushroom with garlic and butter, basting occasionally. Give the Lion’s Mane a bit of char.<\/li>\n
    9. Then take it to a cutting surface and slice thin slightly slanted strips revealing the pink interior.<\/li>\n
    10. Heat one tablespoon of garlic and two tablespoons of butter, salt and pepper to create a garlic butter.<\/li>\n
    11. While mushroom saut\u00e9s, stretch dough ball to desired size, spread extra virgin olive oil and top with mozzarella. Bake until golden brown.<\/li>\n
    12. After removing pizza from oven, cut and place on serving tray.<\/li>\n
    13. Top with arugula, pinched pieces of burrata, Lion’s Mane steak slices, Parmesan, drizzle of garlic butter and cracked black pepper.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
