Summertime

We had the most delicious and refreshing summer pizza last night. Tomatoes from the farmer's market, fresh basil from our garden, and yummy shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Not only was the pizza yummy, it was extremely easy to make. Check out the recipe below.

1 Prepared Pizza Crust
2 tsp. Olive Oil
1-2 cups Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese
2-3 tomatoes, cut into slices
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 c. chopped fresh basil
Salt & Pepper to taste

Brush crust with olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese, leaving 1/2 inch border. Arrange tomatoes over cheese, overlapping. Top with garlic, remaining cheese, salt and pepper. Bake at 500 degrees for 12 minutes on bottom rack of oven. Remove pizza to cutting board; top with basil, let stand 5 minutes.

  1. Yummy. Looks like Carter has a good menu to look forward to. When will he be old enough to help Poppa with these word verifications?
