We made a yummy couple of pizzas last night in our kitchen and I thought you might like to try it if you have an abundance of garden tomatoes this year. We also used a few snips of basil from our herb garden. Enjoy!

How to do it:

Put together 1 or 2 pizza crusts; I used the Betty Crocker packet that makes a 12-inch crust, and all you need to add is 1/2 cup hot water for each packet.

For sauce for a 12-inch pizza, quarter about 15 cherry tomatoes and place in a small frying pan  along with 2 tablespoons olive oil, several leaves of chopped fresh basil, and several slices of diced deli salami or pepperoni. Cook this over medium high heat for about 3 minutes, pressing on tomatoes to flatten and stirring often. It will thicken a bit as you cook it.

Spread the sauce over the crust you’ve prepared and top with your favorite pizza toppings and several slices of mozzarella cheese (or use shredded, about 1 cup). Bake 12-14 minutes in 450 degree oven.
