Ingredients:

  • 1 pizza dough store-bought or homemade
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup zucchini, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • For Chipotle Peach and Bacon Dressing:
  • 2 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and diced
  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
  • 3 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions:

Set your oven to 475F 245C before you start cooking

On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to the thickness you want

Put the dough on a baking sheet or pizza stone

To make the pizza dough even, spread the tomato sauce over it

Add the mozzarella cheese shreds on top of the sauce

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and then slice the yellow bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini

Spread them out evenly on top of the cheese

Feel free to add more salt and black pepper to your liking

It should be baked in a hot oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly

Make the Chipotle Peach and Bacon Dressing while the pizza is baking: Dice the peaches, mince the chipotle peppers, crumble the bacon, add the olive oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper, and blend or process the ingredients until smooth

Mix everything together until it's smooth

Take the pizza out of the oven when it's done and let it cool down a bit

Spread the Chipotle Peach and Bacon Dressing on top of the pizza

Add some fresh basil leaves as a garnish

Cut your Summer Garden Pizza into pieces and serve it with Chipotle Peach and Bacon Dressing
