List of Ingredients




1 12-inch Mama Mary's® Gourmet Pizza Crust
2 medium onions, peeled & cut into 12 wedges
4 plum tomatoes, peeled & cut in half lengthwise
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper, divided
8 oz. Mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/4 cup basil pesto
1/4 cup cream
1 egg yolk, slightly beaten
4 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, divided
1/3 cup Romano cheese, grated


Recipe



Preheat oven to 425°F.

In a medium baking pan toss together onions and tomatoes. Combine oliveoil, salt, pepper and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper; coat vegetables with mixture. Bake until onions are tender and slightly brown, about 20 minutes. Drain vegetables, reserving olive oil.

Line a vented pizza pan or large baking sheet with parchment baking paper trimmed so that edges do not hang over the pan and will not touch oven walls. Place pizza crust on pan and brush crust and rim with reserved olive oil. Combine Mozzarella Cheese, pesto, cream, egg yolk and 2 tablespoons basil. Spread over pizza crust; top with onion mixture and Romano cheese.

Keeping pizza on the pan bake for 15 minutes. To crisp the crust, remove from pan and place crust directly on the oven rack for 3 additional minutes. Cool slightly, sprinkle with remaining basil and crushed red pepper, slice and serve.

Yields 8 slices.
