Copycat Holy Shiitake Pizza {with EASY Garlic Aioli}
This is a copycat version of a pizza from The Mellow Mushroom. I can’t even rave enough about how great this pizza is!! Seriously, make it now!
I’m guessing if you’ve made it to this part, you were intrigued or you really just like mushroom pizza! LOL. Any who – This pizza has THREE kinds of mushrooms, caramelized onions, cheese, chives and a super simple {cheaters} Garlic Aioli – that I think makes the pizza go from being just a pizza to being bomb-diggity!
Even mushroom haters may like this pizza – my 17 yr. old swears he hates mushrooms – he even goes as far as telling me they’re bad for his health ….. but even he liked this pizza! Score one for mom! ๐
You will notice I don’t necessarily give amounts for the sauce or toppings – I really believe that is a matter of personal preference. I used about 4 oz. of each of the mushrooms, and I carmelized one medium onion for this recipe – use more or less depending on your tastes or what you have on hand! ๐
How about you … are you down for some Holy Shiitake Pizza?
So tempting …… mmmmmm!

This pizza sounds delicious, Jamie! My hubby is one of those that "doesn't like mushrooms" but mysteriously, winds up eating things with mushrooms in it. Go figure! ๐ Thanks for sharing your recipe and pinning! Have a great Saturday!

I love this name! Made me lol. I was intrigued by it, but I also really like mushroom pizza. It has never once crossed my mind that they could be bad for my health (too funny!)
Michelle
Thanks for linking. I giggle every time I think about the name.

That looks AWESOME – but be careful – "The Mellow Mushroom" has had a "Holy Shiitake" pizza for years.
Paula
That is why this is called a “Copycat” recicpe.

Saw this on the linky party and had to come over for a look. I think this sounds delicious and I must try that garlic aioli. Reminds me of Papa Johns flavors with the garlic butter for dipping … except better. Pinned.

This pizza sounds great! I think the shiitake will add a nice flavor. ๐
Karly Gomez
Oh my, this looks delish! And it would be right my husband's alley because he adores mushrooms. Pretty sure if it was possible, he would turn into a giant fungi because he eats so many mushrooms, ha ha ha!
I would love to have you come link up for Tasty Tuesday with me!

This is EXCELLENT!!!!
I made this for an outdoor get-together a couple of weeks ago.
Used my own crust, but followed everything else on the recipe, including the garlic aioli. Very tasty! Will definitely be making it again.
I even received high praise from one of the guests, who is a serious cook!
Thank you for sharing the recipe!

I was scrolling around the internet looking for a Mellow Mushroom Holy Shiitake copy cat and found this recipe. Let me say it was well worth it. First I made the made the caramelized onions and realized I needed to let the aioli sit fit 30 mins so I decided to make it the next day. I used a Trader Joeโs pre-made pizza crust it made the cook and prep time so much faster. I just layered the crust like any other pizza with the toppings listed. It was delicious! Thank you so much! I will be making this again.
