Ingredients

• 2 slices of eggplant
• a gourmet pizza base
• pizza sauce or tomato paste
• 250g pack of pizza cheese
• 2 diced tomatoes
• ½ a red capsicum
• ½ a grated zucchini
• 4 sliced mushrooms
• basil
• mixed herbs
• parsley

METHOD

•  Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees C.
•  Slice and sprinkle eggplant with a little salt to extract bitterness. Leave for 10 minutes then wash off salt. While waiting for eggplant to soak in salt you could complete 3-8.
•  Place pizza base on a round oven pan or pizza pan.
•  Spread pizza sauce or tomato paste evenly over base.
•  Sprinkle pizza cheese mix over base. You could also just use plain cheese instead of the fancy cheese, it will still taste nice.
•  Dice tomato and capsicum and sprinkle over base.
•  Grate Zucchini and sprinkle over Base.
•  Slice mushrooms and spread over base.
•  Cook eggplant on both sides in frying pan or under the griller. When eggplant is cooked, slice it into even pieces and spread over base.
• Sprinkle with basil and mixed herbs to your liking.
•  Add a little more cheese to the top of pizza, but don’t over do it.
•  Place in oven on about the middle shelf. After about 10 minutes check to see if cheese is melted and the pizza is cooked. If it is not cooked keep checking every couple of minutes till it’s done.
•  Cut pizza in to 8 even pieces and place 2 pieces on a plate.
•  With the parsley you could either place a whole piece in between the two pieces of pizza or chop it up finely and sprinkle over top of pizza.

You could add any type of vegetable you think would go nice on this pizza, use your imagination. Also this pizza serves 2 adults.

Enjoy.
