Notes
- You can use regular, whole wheat or gluten-free pizza dough.
- Instead of olive oil, you can use toum (Lebanese garlic sauce), zhough, basil oil, or pesto as a base for your pizza.
- Other additions to this pizza are sliced and roasted (or fried) zucchini or eggplants, bell peppers, spinach or feta cheese.
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the pizza on a baking sheet and place it in a cold oven. Turn the oven on to 250 degrees F and let the pizza reheat slowly, this would take about 25 minutes.
