Pizza-licious Home-Baked Pie
Courtesy of Mealtime.org
Pizza doesn't have to be delivery once you have this easy, homemade vegetable pie in your recipe file. It's loaded with vegetables that kids
enjoy and the one unusual culprit with the Italian-sounding name, Signor Zucchini, is hidden in the sauce. S-h-h-h, don't tell. The whole
recipe takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish. Just try to get pizza delivery faster than that.
Preparation:
Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F. Oil a dark metal rimmed 10 x 15-inch cookie sheet with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
Unroll the crust onto the cookie sheet and press to cover the bottom of the cookie sheet, creating a slightly thicker rim around the edge. Brush another teaspoon of olive oil over the crust and set aside.
Purée the zucchini and the tomato paste in a blender or food processor. Spread over the pizza crust. Top with the shredded mozzarella, mushrooms, mixed vegetables, Parmesan cheese and remaining olive oil.
Bake until crust is browned and topping is bubbling, about 15 minutes. Let the pizza rest for 5 minutes before serving. Cut in 8 pieces.
