Pizza Time!

**Did I mention I need a new camera?**

Today I was feeling rather lethargic and could not decide what to make for dinner. There was talk of hamburgers...but that didn't really appeal to me today. Instead I came across a yummy recipe for Carmelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pizza at Good Eats 'n Sweet Treats. Being the goat cheese whore that I am, I got really excited as I read this recipe (yah, I'm a dork.) and decided to experiment and make a half/half pizza to share with the hubby. I made 1/2 the pizza in this recipe and the other half was my own re-creation of a pizza served at Earl's Restaurant.

At Earl's it's called the 'California Pizza', simply - basil pesto as the sauce, and for the topping I use sundried tomatoes, shrimp and goat cheese. Once it's out of the oven I like to squeeze some lemon juice on it. Mmmmmm, etc.

I'm not really one for measuring, either. I mean, seriously, it's a pizza, do what feels good! I love goat cheese and sundried tomatoes so I put lots on my side and not as much on hubby's side.

The final verdict
Hubby said the onion pizza needs meat. He's a man so I really can't blame him... plus I agree so I think I will add some grilled chicken next time.

Both sides were fantastic however I had some trouble with the crust, I baked the pizza on our new pizza stone (thanks Mr&Mrs W!)...the underside part of the crust did not bake/harden. I tried leaving it in the oven a bit longer but the side crust got darker as well as the toppings so I had to just take it out. It was still good I just wished it was a bit crispier.
