Delicious homemade Mediterranean pizza!
Doesn’t that pizza look wonderful? I can tell you, with it’s daring flavor, it didn’t last long in this house. If you notice, there isn’t red pizza sauce on this pizza. Extra Light Olive Oil provided for a wonderful garlic sauteed sauce. It was even key in cooking the chicken for this pizza. Mediterranean pizza has made it to the top of my list of favorite food!
