Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pizza

by eDiets


2 tsp. olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced onion, separated into rings (about 1 onion)
1 Italian cheese-flavored pizza crust (such as Boboli)
1/2 cup bottled pizza sauce (such as Contadina)
1/4 cup chopped, drained, sun-dried tomato halves packed in oil
2/3 cup (3 ounces) crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil


Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cover and cook for 3 minutes. Uncover and cook for 11 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently. Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet. Combine the sauce and tomatoes. Spread sauce mixture over pizza crust. Top with onion and cheese. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with basil. Cut into 6 wedges.

From north of the border, Tammy Duplessis, delivers...

How about an almost vegetarian pizza? Roll out dough till thin -- 1 dough ball should make 2 large pizzas. Add a sprinkling of olive oil (just enough to cover). Sprinkle oregano over lightly, add uncooked sliced thin potatoes, mushrooms, green peppers and onions. If you like, add a little ham too. Cover with low-fat mozzarella, then on the very top sprinkle tomatoes and a few green olives (not many). Cook for about 20 minutes at 375 degrees. I think it's the best in the world!

I like to take a Papa Louie's Honey Wheat sub roll (150 calories, Fat 1.5g, Carb. 30 g). I use about two tablespoons of pizza sauce on it, add mushrooms, bell peppers, spinach (my favorite), one slice or shredded fat-free cheese on each side and put it in the oven until cheese is melted. Makes a great low-fat pizza.
