Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pizza


Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pizza
Cooking Light

Susan's Note: I bought a ball of dough from my local pizzeria for $3 and made this delicious pizza. I had made it a long time ago but forgot about it. Yum! More cheese would make it yummier.

Sweet onions, salty sun-dried tomatoes and tangy crumbled goat cheese give this low-fat pizza a tasty depth of flavor.

Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 wedge)
Ingredients
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced onion, separated into rings (about 1 onion)
1 (1-pound) Italian cheese-flavored pizza crust (such as Boboli)
1/2 cup bottled pizza sauce (such as Contadina)
1/4 cup chopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomato halves
2/3 cup (3 ounces) crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
Preparation
Preheat oven to 450°.

Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cover and cook for 3 minutes. Uncover and cook for 11 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently.

Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet. Combine the sauce and tomatoes. Spread sauce mixture over pizza crust. Top with onion and cheese. Bake at 450° for 10 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with basil. Cut into 6 wedges.
