List of Ingredients
- 1 16-ounce loaf frozen whole wheat bread dough, thawed
- 1 green onion or leek
- 1/4 of a small yellow or green sweet pepper
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce
- 1/4 cup purchased pesto

Instructions
- On a lightly floured surface, roll bread dough into a 11-inch circle. Transfer dough to an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press dough into bottom and up sides of pan. Prick generously with a fork. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until light brown.
- Meanwhile, cut green onion or leek and sweet pepper into long, thin strips. In a medium saucepan, cook onion or leek and sweet pepper, covered, in a small amount of boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes or until tender; drain completely.
- Spread pizza sauce over half of the hot crust; spread pesto over remaining half of crust. Sprinkle with provolone or mozzarella cheese. Arrange green onion or leek, sweet pepper, and other desired toppings atop cheese.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes more or until cheese melts and pizza is heated through.
