Primavera Pizza

So Jeff and I were at the grocery store tonight shopping, both starving (bad idea...usually...) and we both were trying to decide what sounded good. All day I'd been craving sauteed zuchinni and yellow squash with onions but had no idea what to put it with. Bacon was on sale, and Jeff mentioned that perhaps he would just have breakfast for dinner because bacon sounded good. My brain immediately went to work...how in the world do you combine these two beautiful foods? I then remembered the Boboli pizza crust sitting at home in our pantry...then...sheer genius (and deliciousness) was born. Ladies and gentleman, I give you the Primavera Pizza...

(Okay, since its with bacon, maybe it would be called traditionally more of a Carbonara, but you can't fault me for the fusion...)

Here's what you need!

1/2 package of bacon cut into pieces: Fry the bacon and put to the side in a bowl. Add about 1-2 TBS of butter to the pan then add:

1 small yellow squash
1 small zuchinni
1/2 of a medium onion
All sliced thin. Sautee until almost done.

On a prepared pizza crust (you could use homemade, we just happened to have a Boboli) spread Alfredo Sauce to your liking (I normally make my own alfredo sauce, but we were hungry. To save time we bought a bottled sauce. If you buy a bottled sauce, I recommend Newman's Own...its the most decent bottled sauce I've tasted.)

Spread the bacon over the sauce then put some shredded mozzarella (or colby jack, or whatever...) cheese thinly over the top. Spread your sauteed veggies over that and cover those with a thin(ish) layer of cheese. Sprinkle Parmesan over the top and place in the oven. Bake for 10 minutes.

Voila...and you're welcome!
