After trying grilled eggplant on a pizza I was hooked. Use more or less sauce, I like mine saucy. My DH, DS and DD all said it's one of the best pizzas they have ever had, and my DH doesn't even like eggplant. Enjoy. Ingredients:
1 premade 12-inch pizza crust (i used mama mary's) |
1 -1 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce (i used del monte green pepper mushroom) |
2 cups mozzarella cheese (or half provolone) |
1 small eggplant, peeled, cut in 1/4-inch rounds |
olive oil, to saute |
1/2 cup red bell pepper, chopped |
2 scallions, chopped |
1/4 cup red onion, chopped (optional) |
1 cup mushroom, sliced (button and portobello mix is good!) |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
olive oil, to drizzle (optional) |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Place eggplant rounds on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and broil on low about 8 from flame, about 6-8 minutes on each side(or you may grill). Cut rounds in half. Set aside.
2. In a large nonstick pan, lightly saute red bell pepper, scallions, red onion, and mushrooms in olive oil until tender, about 5-10 minutes.
3. Layer pizza crust with spaghetti sauce, mozzarella cheese, eggplant, and scallion-red onion-mushroom mixture. Sprinkle over oregano and basil, lightly drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
4. Bake in a 450*F. oven for 12-14 minutes. Cut into slices and enjoy!
