This is a recipe from Vegetarian Times. We made it and LOVED it! Very savory, and pretty darn easy! We made a few variations, such as sweet potato instead of winter squash and mozzarella instead of parmesan. We used red onion and a whole wheat, premade pizza round. I'd suggest tailoring the spices to taste. Ingredients:
1 large thinly sliced sweet potato, peeled |
1 medium red onion, sliced very thin |
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary |
1/2 teaspoon dried sage |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground black pepper |
6 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2-1 teaspoon mashed garlic |
1 medium pizza crust, premade |
1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese |
1 cup crumbled feta cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
2. Toss onion and sweet potato in a baking dish with rosemary, sage, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, and 3 tbs olive oil to coat. Cover with foil.
3. Bake about 1 hour, until sweet potato is tender and onions begin to caramelize. Remove dish from oven and set aside. Adjust heat to 375°F.
4. In a small bowl, mix remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper with the mashed garlic.
5. Brush pizza crust with oil mixture.
6. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, reserving a small amount for the top.
7. Evenly distribute onion and sweet potato mixture over pizza and sprinkle with feta and remaining mozzarella.
8. Bake at 375 F for 15 minutes, until heated through. Serve immediately.
