What are we making Monday? Homemade Zucchini Crust Pizza! Yum!
Zucchini, zucchini, zucchini….what to do with all of this zucchini. Are you tired of zucchini recipes yet? I hope not, because I love it! And right now, that is the staple of my kitchen. My plant is insane. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. There is something rewarding in creating meals with ingredients you have grown yourself.
So this week we are making Zucchini Crust Pizza. Feel free to create this in any way you want. Use your favorite toppings to bring this all together. Instead of the traditional pizza toppings, I went with ranch for the sauce, topped with chicken, mushrooms, garden fresh tomatoes, spinach, bacon crumbles and mozzarella cheese and fresh picked Basil. It was everything I was hoping for. I hope you enjoy! Share with me your creations!
