Try It......You'll Like It!

I got this recipe from my blog friend Ashley over the winter. Ashley lives in Brazil, so it was summer for her. I planned to make it when we came into summer, but I forgot. It's unseasonably warm and my zucchini is still producing, so I made pizza for Sunday dinner. It is delicious and my tomatoes that I used were really tangy.

I used 2 medium zucchini, sliced thick.
Place zucchini on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil & a sprinkle of salt and roast for about 30 minutes.
I quartered a couple of tomatoes and put into the oven with the zucchini for the last 10 minutes.
I added some greek olives and fresh oregano
Ashley's recipe calls for mozzarella and parmesan. I only had parm and I think it was good without the mozzarella.

This is a raw sauce made in a blender or food processor:
 4 small quartered tomatoes
1/2 small onion
4 large cloves garlic
bunch of fresh basil
1/2 cup tomato puree
salt
hefty drizzle of olive oil


Use whatever pizza crust you like. I make a thicker, Sicilian style crust.
