My place of employment features a pizza in which goat cheese and vegetables are involved. As a disclaimer to whom it may concern, this is merely an innocent attempt to make a similar dish in my own kitchen, and uses only my taste buds and imagination for guidance (not an employee ingredient/prep list!).
That being said, this pizza is incredible.
Ingredients
Roasted Vegetables- I used Red & Yellow Pepper, Onion, and Zucchini; some may enjoy the addition of eggplant, olives, mushrooms, etc.
Goat Cheese a small package will do
Mozzarella fresh grated or bagged
Pizza Sauce from a jar is just fine for me
Pizza Dough I use Pillsbury found in the biscuit and cinnamon roll making isle
Method
Begin roasting vegetables on a non-stick cookie sheet in the oven while you prepare the dough, or sauté for a few minutes in a skillet
...sprinkle with a little EVOO to avoid sticking
Roll out dough, spread on pizza sauce, and a little mozzarella
Top with veggies and crumbled goat cheese ( I used half of a very small package-a little goes a pretty long way.)
Bake following the directions of your pizza dough!
Enjoy!
Top with roasted veggies
Tips
"Goat Cheese?" you may have said to yourself...yes I know, for those of us who have been perfectly happy with mozzarella and pepperonis for our whole lives, we tend to shy away from fancy-shmancy pizzas with weird toppings and cheeses. Trust me though, if you have any tolerance at all for new flavors, this is one so worth trying. Goat cheese has a great flavor and is an incredible variant for Italian dishes

we make one around here that has sliced goat cheese (one slice for each piece) sliced tomatoes, spinach mozzerella cheese and no pizza sauce but we rub the crust with evoo and garlic. I am going to have to try your too! is the pilsbury crust one of those where you cook it with nothing on it for a few minutes and then load it up and cook it again?
yes, but you can cook it all at the same time too...there's directions on the package for both. Yours sounds good too!!
