Mediterranean Pizza Recipe




Ingredients:

1 box Atkins Quick and Easy
Country White Bread Mix - (12.6 oz)
5 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/2 medium eggplant, cut 1/4" slices
1 tsp salt
1 cup controlled carb tomato sauce
= (such as Rao)
1 cup cooked crumbled Italian sausage, (abt 2 links)
1/2 small yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 oz log fresh goat cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, very thinly sliced

Instructions:

Combine bread mix and yeast in a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups warm water and
3 tablespoons olive oil. Mix with a spoon to form a soft dough. Knead
gently for one minute; shape into a ball. Cover with plastic, and let rise
for 1 hour or until dough is doubled in size.

While dough is rising, sprinkle eggplant with salt; place in a colander to
drain for 30 minutes. Rinse and pat dry.

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Brush eggplant slices with remaining olive oil
and place in a single layer on a nonstick baking sheet. Bake ten minutes,
turning once.

Shape dough into a 14-inch round and transfer to a wire mesh pizza screen
or a pizza pan with holes. Spread tomato sauce on dough, leaving a
1/2-inch border. Top with eggplant, Italian sausage, yellow pepper and
goat cheese. Spread toppings as close to the edge as possible.

Bake pizza 20 to 22 minutes, or until puffed and nicely browned. Remove
from oven and sprinkle with basil.
