Roasted Bell Pepper and Feta Pizza with Gorgonzola and Sauteed Almonds


This vegetarian pan pie is simple, hearty and delicious. I made this as four personal pizzas using the same pizza dough recipe for my Roasted Pear and Gorgonzola pizza down below but feel free to use it as a regular pizza crust. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

Dough (see recipe from my Roasted Pear and Gorgonzola Pizza)
1 Sliced red bell pepper
3 whole cloves garlic
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup your choice of tomato sauce
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese
1/2 cup unsalted chopped almonds
Fresh thyme
Rosemary

Directions:

Prepare the dough, set aside.

To prepare the bell peppers:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Arrange the bell peppers and garlic on a tinfoil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with a bit of rosemary. Bake in the oven for 13-15 minutes, or until slightly crisp at the ends.

To prepare the almonds:
In a pan on medium heat, heat the almonds until browned. Make sure to watch carefully as they can easily burn. Set aside.


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Roll out the dough into desired shape. Distribute tomato sauce evenly over the dough and sprinkle the bell peppers on top. Sprinkle the feta and gorgonzola cheese evenly, topping it with the fresh thyme.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until crust is crisp. Top with the sauteed almonds.
