Summer Pizza Recipe
- 4 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 small red onion, cut into thin slices
- 10 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into small cubes
- 6 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
- 2 (12 inch) store-bought pizza shells, such as Boboli
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the tomatoes in a strainer set over a medium bowl. Toss with the salt and let drain for 15 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, combine the drained tomatoes with the onion, mozzarella, basil, and pepper. Top each pizza shell with half of the tomato mixture.
- Sprinkle the pizzas with the Parmesan and drizzle with the oil. Bake directly on the oven rack until the cheese just melts, about 8 minutes.
