Summer Pizza Recipe

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
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
