GARDEN EGGPLANT PIZZA

Who doesn't love pizza? So this week I made everyone's favorite but in a healthier, tastier way. I've become kind of obsessed with eggplant lately. So why not add some eggplant to my pizza? I came across this recipe on Pinterest, of course, and it looked so simple. And it was! Even I couldn't mess this one up.

What you'll need:
1 Eggplant, peeled
1 Tomato
1 Red Bell Pepper
1 Onion
1 small zucchini
3 T olive oil
1 Pizza crust (I use whole wheat)
2 Cups of shredded mozzarella cheese (8oz.)
1/2 t dried basil
1/2 t dried oregano
1/2 t dried thyme
1/4 t garlic powder
1/2 t salt
1/4 t ground pepper

Directions:Preheat the oven to 425F.

Then chop the eggplant, red pepper, tomato, onion, and zucchini and sauté in a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet on med/high for about 10 minutes. Then take your eggplant mix  and cheese and spread over the pizza crust.
Then sprinkle your basil, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper on top. The finishing touch, drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over your pizza.

Now your ready! Bake for 10 minutes and you're ready to chow down.

I absolutely love, love, love this pizza! It was so easy and quick to make, it would be difficult for anyone to screw this up! And it's healthy to top it off. I think this would also be great to cook on the grill for the summertime.

I hope you enjoy this recipe. Stay tuned to see what's next...
