Garden Pizza

I wish I could tell you that the veggies on this pizza came from my garden…they didn’t, but I am hoping that later this summer I can say they did. I will tell you though, the spring onions I used did come from my grandfather’s garden, it was part of the inspiration for this pizza, so the name does work.

I have been buying a ton of zucchini and squash lately, it’s been looking so good at the market that I haven’t been able to resist. Sometimes I buy a little too much and and before it gets too sad looking I have to scramble to figure out something creative to cook with it. I created this pizza one night a couple of weeks ago playing the “use it up” game that I so often play, and we have made it 3 times since. And I wasn’t the only one requesting it.

This pizza is stacked. And boy is it good. And for those of you who like meat on their pizza…no worries, it’s in there, somewhere.
