I love pizza. I could eat pizza at least once a week. The thing is, pepperoni and cheese just ain’t my thing. Call me a snob, but I like amazing, fresh ingredients on my pizzas. I also like thin crust. I don’t want dough to be the star of the pizza.
We made two different pizzas this night for dinner, and I have NO idea which was my favorite…they were both so dang good!
Ingredients for pizza #1:
crust of your choice (plus cornmeal to dust the top of the pan)
thinly sliced zucchini
thinly sliced Brussels sprouts
thinly sliced tomatoes
thinly sliced mozzarella cheese
thinly slice prosciutto
crumbled feta cheese
sun dried tomatoes
tomato paste with seasonings
Ingredients for pizza #2:
crust of your choice (plus cornmeal to dust the top of the pan)
thinly sliced tomatoes
thinly sliced bell peppers
cooked and drained ground chorizo sausage
thinly sliced mozzarella cheese
tomato paste with seasonings
If you don’t like these ingredients get creative!
to assemble the fancy pizzas:
1. Begin by rolling or tossing the dough into the size of your pan. Then place it on the pan that is lightly dusted with cornmeal.
2. Spread a thin layer of seasoned tomato paste over your dough.
3. Layer your toppings.
4. Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crust is a golden brown.
