Method

  • Preheat oven to highest internal temperature.
  • Caramelize the onion by sauteing it over medium heat in oil for about 10-15 minutes on the stove top. Fry bacon while you roll out pizza dough.

  • Add onion and chopped bacon
  • Add bite sized pieces of squash
  • Add mixed greens
  • Add pine nuts
  • Drizzle balsamic reduction over everything
  • Sprinkle on manchego cheese (or alternative cheese)
  • Pop pizzas in oven (my oven goes to 550 degrees and pizzas take about 5 minutes to cook to my liking.)
  • Balsamic reduction: Boil 1 cup of balsamic vinegar in a small pot for a few minutes until it is reduced by half and thickened.
