Mini Eggplant Pizzas with Mozzarella Cheese

12/9/2015

Of course it's okay to order pizza every once in a while. We probably do once a month -- or every two months? Who's counting? Usually we order pizza when I am too lazy to think of cooking anything and my husband is craving his favorite pizza spot -- Dominos?! I still don't understand that. I think I am a Papa John's girl, but there are a lot of really good local pizza places I prefer instead of one of the chains. Anyway, these mini eggplant pizzas are a great substitute when you're craving pizza but want to keep it light and healthy! Even husband approved :) I hope you enjoy them as much as we did!

Ingredients:
· 1 can of fire roasted tomatoes
· 1 large eggplant
· Shredded mozzarella cheese
· Fresh basil
· Cherry tomatoes
· Pepperoni - or any toppings of your choice!

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Cut eggplant into small slices - these are your mini pizza crusts! Sprinkle with salt.
3. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and bake eggplant slices for 15 minutes.
4. Now add your toppings -- fire roasted tomatoes, cheese, cherry tomatoes, & pepperoni
5. Bake for another 4-5 minutes with these toppings.
6. Finally top with red chili pepper flakes, oregano, and fresh basil. Enjoy your "pizza"!

I am not much of a vegetable lover, but with this recipe, I think I might just change my mind. The fresh eggplant made into my favorite food in the whole world. I am going to try my own version of this recipe and I am gonna put different types of toppings. I think I will make four batches. The first batch will be the same as your recipe. The second batch will have ground beef and cheese. The third batch will have mushrooms and cheese. The last batch will be overloaded with different toppings such as bell peppers, pepperoni, cheese, mushrooms, and fresh veggies.

I never knew you could put eggplants in pizza. I like pizza so much, but lately, I have been dieting so I gave up on everything that had too much fat. It is really hard to go on a diet because I love to eat everything that is tasty, but unhealthy. I have been abusing my body, so I decided that it was finally time to take control of my life. I hope I get to lose weight soon because I want to be able to eat a pizza again!
