Goat Cheese Pizza

Goat cheese pizza is one of my favorite pizza recipes to make. I can't remember quite how I stumbled onto the recipe, but I think it's a variation I learned from my Aunt and Uncle during a visit to Bear Valley. The prep time is less than 10 minutes and you'll need another 15 minutes to bake it. Here are the ingredients to get you started.

• Goat Cheese
• Cherry or Sweet 100 Tomatoes
• Marinated Sun Dried Tomatoes
• Crushed Garlic
• Olive Oil
• Thin Boboli Crust (substitute at will)
• Oven Pizza Stone (not required)
• Pre-heat your oven to 425

Step 1: Make the Sauce

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil with one teaspoon of crushed garlic. Let that stand for a little bit. Start cutting your tomatoes into halves.

Step 2: Put It All Together

Spread the sauce evenly over the crust. Add the tomatoes. In this version, I went a little heavy on the tomatoes and used the entire pint, but I usually only use about 1/2 of a pint. Add some sun dried tomatoes. Add 2-3 oz. of goat cheese or as you like. Put it in the oven for about 15 minutes or until the goat cheese starts to brown a little.

Step 3: Have Some Wine While It Cooks

White wine goes really well with goat cheese pizza!

Step 4: It's Ready!

When the tips of the goat cheese are starting to brown, it's ready. If you leave it in too long, the sun dried tomatoes will also start to get burnt.
