Cooking spray
1 (8-ounce) package presliced mushrooms
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/4 cup (1 ounce) preshredded fresh Parmesan cheese

1 cup chunky vegetable pasta sauce (such as Ragu)
1/2 cup (2 ounces) preshredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
Preheat oven to 450º.
Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; sauté 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Combine the ricotta and Parmesan cheeses. Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet. Spread the pasta sauce over crust, leaving a 1-inch border.
