Cook Time: 30 MINUTES
Serves: 2 PEOPLE
INGREDIENTS: 7
Ingredients
- 1 Banza pizza crust
- Neutral cooking oil
- 3-4 tablespoons pesto
- 1 small summer squash
- 1 small heirloom tomato
- 2-3 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
- Black pepper
Directions
- Prepare Ingredients: Lightly oil your grill pan and preheat over medium high heat. Take Banza pizza out of the package and leave on the counter to come to room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Thinly slice the heirloom tomato. Slice the summer squash into rounds about â of an inch thick.
- Grill Pizza: Once the crust has come to room temperature, rub each side with 1 tsp of cooking oil. Reduce the grill pan heat to medium and add crust to the pan. Grill for 5 minutes per side until the crust is evenly charred and warmed through.
- Prepare Squash: While the crust cooks, if you have extra space in the grill pan throw your summer squash on there to grill. If you donât have space in the grill pan you can also quickly sautĂ© them in a pan over medium with a touch of oil until softened.
- Assemble Pizza: Once the squash is softened and the crust grilled, assemble the pizza. Spread the pesto on the crush and layer on sliced tomatoes and squash for toppings. Finish with black pepper and the crumbled goat cheese!
Tips
Depending on the size of your produce you may have leftover tomatoes and zucchini after making this. Donât fret! They make great toppings for a salad or you can easily double the rest of the ingredients to make two pizzas.
