Equipment

  • (2) 9x13 sheet pan or (1) 12x18 sheet pan
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • ¼ cup tomato sauce or pasta sauce
  • 4 oz eggplant thinly sliced
  • 1 medium yellow pepper thinly slice
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella sliced
  • 5 oz goat cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper optional
  • ½ tsp koser salt
  • ¼ cup fresh basil

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 450°
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough and place onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
  • First, spread the tomato sauce all over the dough. Then lay your fresh mozzarella. Add your sliced bell pepper and eggplant on top. Be sure to spread them out.
  • Now crumble the goat cheese evenly, all over. Drizzle with olive oil, crushed red pepper and salt.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and lightly golden brown. Top with fresh basil and Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use whatever pepper you have on hand. I happen to love the slight sweetness of a yellow bell pepper. Red and green are delicious too.
  • The crushed red pepper is optional. You can leave it out if you don't like spicy foods.
  • This recipe is good for 2 small pizzas or 1 large one.
