BBQ pizza


It was a cold and dreary spring day yesterday but that didn't stop us from tasting a hint of summertime thanks to modern transportation which brings us all sorts of produce off-season! We didn't venture out to the grill for this one though if the weather had cooperated grilling the toppings and the pizza on this one would have been superb.

Toppings:
  • BBQ sauce
  • tempeh (pan-fried in a splash of soy sauce and then tossed with BBQ sauce)
  • Eggplant (sauteed until soft)
  • onions (sauteed until almost crispy)
  • bell pepper (this was grilled - leftover from a grilled meal a few days ago)
  • slices of fresh tomato
  • and, of course, we passed the nutritional yeast and hot pepper flakes at the table
This was a schweeeeet pizza. It was tasty but I'll only give it a 7 because I thought the BBQ sauce was too sweet. We used a jarred sauce that K got as a holiday gift from work. It had good flavor but was just too sweet - I prefer a BBQ sauce that tends towards zippy and away from sweet.
