Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 small red onion, cut in half then thinly sliced
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers
- 1 small zucchini, sliced
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce, no added sweeteners
- 1 (10- or 12-inch) whole-wheat thin pizza crust (Boboli Italian Thin Crust was used in this recipe)
- 1/2 cup diced sun-dried tomatoes, or 2 Roma tomatoes, sliced
- 8 green olives, diced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
- 1/2 cup shredded 2% mozzarella cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 450°.
In a large skillet, add oil, and sauté on medium-low heat for 1 minute, the garlic, onion, bell peppers (if using the Balsamic Bell Pepper recipe, do not sauté with the other ingredients), and zucchini slices.
Spread sauce over the crust, leaving 1 inch around the edges dry. Evenly distribute onto crust the garlic, onion, bell peppers, zucchini, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, basil, and mozzarella cheese. Preferably, place pizza directly onto middle oven rack. Otherwise, place pizza on a large cooking stone or cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

We tried this the other night and YUMMOOOOO! Love the freshness! I accidentally saute'ed the veggies a little too long, but I learned next time to go with the "raw look." Still VERY tasty! Might add fresh mushrooms next time!

Tracy, lol..you and me to!
This looks great…love how you break down servings calories etc. Have a question..have you tried the flatout wraps as a pizza base? I think it would work. wonder about servings etc if I did so. Any advice on how to break that out would be great. Thanks
Mary, Thank-you! Do you mean the tortilla wraps? I have, and they could hold up with all the ingredients.
