Zucchini Flatbreads


It's the best part of summer - my weekly farm delivery has been overflowing with beautiful squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants - yum! I haven't been able to find such tasty produce at my local supermarket so the weekly deliveries are that much more precious. The zucchini has been beautiful and the tomatoes, while so tasty, unfortunately don't have the longest shelf life so I made this flatbread pizza last night to enjoy them both - it's so easy!

Summer Squash Pizza
Ingredients:
1 pre-baked pizza crust (12-inch)
2-3 medium tomatoes, sliced
2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
some fresh basil leaves
EVOO

--> Heat oven to 450F.
--> Place pizza crust on baking sheet, arrange tomatoes over crust and brush with olive oil.
--> Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat, add zucchini and cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally until zucchini are crisp-tender. Arrange zucchini over tomatoes and top with cheeses.
--> Bake 10-12 min or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted. Sprinkle with basil.
