Vegetable Pizzas

Ingredients

  • 1  medium zucchini, quartered lengthwise
  • 1  small yellow summer squash, quartered lengthwise
  • 1  small red sweet pepper, quartered lengthwise
  • 2  tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4  teaspoon salt
  • 1/8  teaspoon black pepper
  • 1  large ripe tomato, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4  cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 3  tablespoons purchased basil pesto
  • 4  6- to 7-inch pita breads or individual pizza crusts (such as Boboli)
  • 1  cup shredded mozzarella or smoked provolone cheese

Directions

1. Brush zucchini, summer squash, and sweet pepper with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. For a charcoal grill, grill vegetables on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals until crisp-tender, turning once halfway through grilling. Allow 8 to 10 minutes for sweet pepper and 5 to 6 minutes for zucchini and summer squash. Remove vegetables from grill.

2. Chop grilled vegetables. In a medium bowl combine chopped vegetables, tomato, mayonnaise, and pesto. Spread vegetable mixture over one side of pitas. Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Place on grill rack. Cover and grill for 2 to 3 minutes or until pitas are lightly toasted, vegetables are heated, and cheese melts. Carefully remove from grill. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and grill vegetables and pitas as above.) Makes 4 pizzas.

3. Seafood Pizza: Add 5 ounces smoked salmon; one 9-1/2 ounce can of tuna, well drained; or 5 ounces chopped cooked, peeled, deveined shrimp to the vegetable mixture. Continue as above.
