Рецепт Roasted Vegetable Pizza
Roasted Vegetable Pizza is an easy dinner idea you can pull together in no time with a little prep work ahead of time. Roasted veggies are nestled on a creamy layer of jarred light Alfredo sauce and covered in mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses for a meatless meal everyone will love!
Today, I chose to make my own Easy Pizza Dough, but many times when I make homemade pizza, I just purchase the ready made dough I can get at my grocery store. Defrosted frozen bread dough also makes an excellent pizza base in a pinch, as well as Naan bread and flour tortillas.
To simplify things, I did roast the veggies a few days before I made this pizza. I actually made extra so we had them as a side dish one night and then I used the leftover roasted veggies for this pizza later in the week. I used a combination of zucchini, red pepper, mushrooms, carrots, onions, and grape tomatoes...but you can use any kind of veggie combo you like...or use whatever you have in your fridge! Make sure you keep the veggies in a single layer with a little space between each piece to get the best roast.
With the help of jarred Alfredo sauce, this comes together really easy. I've sort of always been more of a fan of the "white" pizza than the kind with tomato sauce, so I enjoyed this pizza very much! The Alfredo sauce goes so well with the sweetness from the roasted vegetables.
The next time you are planning pizza for dinner, give this Roasted Vegetable Pizza a try! I think you will love it, just like we did!

Roasted veggies are nestled on a creamy layer of jarred light alfredo sauce and covered in mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses for a meatless meal everyone will love!
Ingredients
- 5 cups of assorted raw veggies for roasting (I used grape tomatoes, cubed zucchini, diced onion, carrots, sliced mushrooms, and red bell peppers)
- 1-2 TBS olive oil
- salt and pepper
- EASY PIZZA DOUGH (or purchase pre-made dough from your favorite pizza place or grocery store)
- 1- 15 oz. jar light Alfredo sauce, divided
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 4 cups part-skim shredded mozzarella, divided
Instructions
Oven roast the vegetables by preheating the oven to 450 degrees F. On a large sheet pan (or two, you do not want to overcrowd the pan) add all the veggies and drizzle with olive oil, them mix to coat them. Make sure they are in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until veggies are soft, stirring once during cook time. Remove from oven and set aside to cool. (This can be done a day ahead of time or on the same day as you make the pizzas, however, it makes the pizzas come together much faster if you've already roasted the veggies and they are ready to go)
Take 1/2 prepared dough and shape it into a 12" pie, on a perforated pizza pan or on a round sheet pan. Spread dough with about a 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of the jarred alfredo sauce, leaving about a 1/2 inch around the edges uncovered.
Place 1/2 roasted veggies evenly around the pizza on top of the sauce. Sprinkle with half the Parmesan cheese and then half the mozzarella.
Bake at 450 degrees F for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is melted and starts to turn golden brown. Remove pizza to cutting board and repeat with remaining ingredients to make second pizza.
Allow first pizza to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into 8 slices. Repeat with second pizza.
Yield: 8 servings (2-12" pizzas)
