Kid Friendly – Mini Veggie Pizza Recipe

We love trying new toppings on our Mini Veggie Pizza.  Shredded and Sauteed Zucchini and Squash is our new favorite!

Shredding the veggies helps them blend with the cheese better and it also allows the veggies to saute quickly.  To grate the zucchini and squash, I scrub my veggies, then use a cheese grater until I have two mounds of shredded veggies.

Heat up the oil and then cook the chopped onions until translucent.  Then, add the garlic, zucchini, and squash.  Cook for about five minutes, until vegetables are no longer crisp.  I can’t help, but to taste at this point, the veggies absorb such a great, savory flavor!

Set the veggies aside once softened.  Place thin-sliced buns coated with a bit of olive oil on oven rack and broil until lightly toasted (keep an eye on the buns, broiling is a super fast process.    Remove lightly golden pizza crust from the oven and begin layering the pizza toppings…a layer of pizza sauce, a layer of  veggies, and finish with a layer of mozzarella cheese and a dash of garlic salt!

Bake for 5-7 minutes until center is warm.  Serve warm.  Enjoy!
