This pizza combines the earthiness of sage, rosemary, and thyme in an aromatic topping. Sage and rosemary impart a slightly piney flavor with citrus undertones. And thyme, with a trace of clove and pepper, enhances almost any food! Then add the yummy goat cheese and you have a winner! Ingredients:
1 (10 ounce) whole-wheat pizza crusts or 1 (10 ounce) prepared whole wheat pizza dough |
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |
1 medium red onion, halved and thinly sliced |
1 garlic clove, minced (optional) |
2 large roma tomatoes, sliced |
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled |
12 fresh sage leaves, cut into 1/4-inch slices |
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leave |
1 tablespoon snipped fresh rosemary |
1 tablespoon fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped for garnish (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Place prepared pizza crust on a baking sheet.
3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and sauté onion for 5–8 minutes or until tender. Add sliced garlic, if using, and cook 1 more minute. Spread onions and garlic evenly over pizza crust, then top with tomato slices, spreading evenly to the edges. Top with cheese.
4. Bake for 5 minutes, then sprinkle sage, thyme, and rosemary evenly over pizza.
5. Return to oven and bake for 5–7 minutes more, or until tomatoes are hot and cheese has melted. Sprinkle parsley over top.
6. Cut into wedges with a pizza cutter and serve!
