Zucchini-crusted vegetable pizza

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Grated raw zuchini
1 teaspoon Salt
2 Eggs
1 cup Grated lowfat mozzarella
Cheese
Safflower oil -- to coat
Baking sheet
2 cups Basic Pizza Sauce
1 large Red bell pepper
1 large Green bell pepper
½ cup Thickly sliced tomatoes
¼ cup Diced canned green chiles
½ cup Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. In a colander set over a large bowl, toss together zucchini and salt and allow to drain for 10 minutes. Run water through colander to rinse salt from zucchini, then squeeze to remove excess moisture. (Salt pulls water from zucchini and keeps crust from being too wet.) Combine in a bowl with eggs and mozzarella.

2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a medium baking sheet. Press zucchini mixture evenly onto sheet. Bake until lightly browned and crisp (12 to 15 minutes).

3. Spread sauce over top of zucchini crust. Slice bell peppers into rings, then lay on top of pizza along with tomatoes and chiles. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake for 10 minutes and serve hot.
