    Summer Squash Pizza

    "You can use all zucchini or yellow squash for this grilled pizza. Serve one slice as an appetizer or two with a salad for a simple supper."

    Yield
    8 servings (serving size: 1 slice)

    Ingredients

    1 teaspoon olive oil
    1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise into (1/4-inch-thick) slices
    1 medium yellow squash, cut lengthwise into (1/4-inch-thick) slices
    Cooking spray
    1 (12-inch) packaged pizza crust (such as Mama Mary's)
    2 plum tomatoes, cut into (1/8-inch-thick) slices
    1/4 cup (1 ounce) finely grated pecorino Romano cheese
    2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
    1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh oregano

    How to Make It

    1. Prepare grill.
    2. Combine oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, zucchini slices, and yellow squash slices in a large bowl, tossing gently to coat. Place squash mixture on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 2 minutes on each side or until tender.
    3. Reduce grill temperature to medium.
    4. Lightly coat pizza crust with cooking spray; grill 1 minute on each side or until lightly toasted. Arrange zucchini and squash over crust. Arrange tomatoes over squash; sprinkle with pecorino Romano cheese. Grill 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Remove from grill; sprinkle with basil and oregano.
