I crave this bruschetta-like pizza in spring, when I'm planting tomatoes in our garden. Slices make great appetizers when the tomatoes are ripe. But you can also serve the pizza alongside a grilled entree or as a meatless main course.
Ingredients:
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces sliced provolone cheese
4 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Unroll crescent dough into one long rectangle. Press into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan; seal seams and perforations. Bake at 375° for 14-16 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute garlic and basil in oil for 1 minute.
2. Arrange half of the provolone cheese over the crust. Layer with half of the tomatoes, basil mixture, Parmesan cheese and pepper. Repeat layers. Bake for 14-16 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 6 slices, 3 servings.
