Categories dinner, easy, pizza and calzones, main course

Time 40m

Yield 1 large, 2 medium, or more smaller pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 large or 4 small green tomatoes
Coarse salt
Pizza dough (see recipe)
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/2 cup coarsely chopped or torn basil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
Thinly slice tomatoes, salt lightly and let sit at least 20 minutes, then drain off any accumulated liquid.
Top pizza rounds with tomato slices and Parmesan. Bake about 10 minutes, or until nearly done. Sprinkle with basil and cook until done.

Tips:

- To prevent the pizza dough from sticking to your hands, lightly grease them with olive oil or cooking spray before handling the dough. - If you don't have parchment paper, you can grease a baking sheet and use that instead. - For a crispier crust, bake the pizza on a pizza stone or baking steel. - If you don't have a pizza peel, you can use a large spatula or even a cutting board to transfer the pizza to the baking sheet or pizza stone. - Be careful not to overload the pizza with toppings, as this can make it soggy. - If you are using fresh mozzarella cheese, be sure to pat it dry before using it on the pizza, as excess moisture can make the pizza soggy. - For a more flavorful pizza, use a variety of toppings, such as different cheeses, meats, vegetables, and herbs. - Experiment with different types of pizza dough, such as whole wheat, sourdough, or gluten-free dough.

Conclusion:

Green tomato pizza is a delicious and unique way to use up green tomatoes from your garden. The tangy flavor of the green tomatoes pairs perfectly with the rich flavor of the cheese and the crispy crust. This pizza is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
