Roasted fall and root veggie pizza.

[kozmic]

I made 2 full pans of roasted veggies today: baby yellow potatoes, parsnips, turnips, beets, leeks, mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, red carrots, yellow pepper, unpeeled garlic cloves, asparagus, Roma tomatoes, red onion, Brussels sprouts and a spring of rosemary. Coated with evoo and kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper. Convection roasted at 450* until they had a nice char starting. First tray was the longer cooking veggies and the second when in 10 minutes later with the quick cookers.


Then a concocted a homemade "white" pizza with evoo, fresh mozzarella and grated parmesan cheeses and some fresh parsley and Italian herbs. Cooked at 450* on a stone. Last few minutes I placed the tomatoes around the pizza, peeled the garlic and flopped the rest of the veggies on top.

It was very good, but pretty heavy. Definitely a 2 piece max and best with a knife and fork (at least to start). Served with a nice glass of Masi wine.

I got 2 thumbs up from Lady Koz and Kid Koz # 2 who came home from college for the night.

And of course shown with the request S&W revolver. In this case a 6" 27-2.

Bon Appetit magazine has competition from S&W Forum!

This looks like a write-up from a magazine! What says your pup? Add some squirrel or tom cat?

Looks amazing.

The wife likes white pizza, preferably with veggies. I like veggies, but I favor tomato sauce.

All in all, I like literally anything on a pizza, I'm not picky at all. Even anchovies... but I'm pretty much alone on that one.

Funny you should ask John. Jed was patiently awaiting for anything to take a tumble off the table. He was on the receiving end of a liberated potato. He snagged it on the fly and it never touched the ground. He seemed to like it!

I'm not in to veggie pizza but that's a fine looking spread.

It's kinda like a fall harvest thing.

+1 on the 27-2.

As "Clara" used to say.... Where's the Beef???
Only in NY or California would a pizza be made
with no meat.
Maybe it was good, hope so. But does'nt look very appetizing
to a Midwestern "meat and potatoes" guy.

The misses made home made dough and made a cheese pizza, calzones stuffed with cheeze and fried dough. It was so good tonight.

I'm a carnivore(meat eater) but your veggie pizza looks good. I'd add some hot pepper.

Looks fantastic, Koz. I love roasted vegetables, especially the root type and asparagus, but never thought of putting them on a pizza. The photography was great, also.

Some bulb fennel might have been a nice addition, maybe in place of the Brussels sprouts (which I love, but not with fennel).

My kittens suggest a mouse or three and lose the dog.

I know what you mean....

I'd have to half in the bag to eat most of that junk, too.

I have only one word for you SAUSAGE !

 

[Marshwheeling]

I love roasted veggies; we eat a lot of them around here. But I need meat on my pizza.

 

[kozmic]

I pray all of you misguided "meatheads" have a culinary awaking and venture beyond meals Where the 2 biggest decisions are "Do you wanna super-size that"? And: "Do you want ketchup for your fries"? I also pray that this epiphany happens before your doctor needs a roto-rooter and a hoe (not that kinda hoe) to dredge the grizzle and bacon grease out of your arteries.

Lady Koz does not do pork products, so my meat pizzas are not created in our kitchen. We have been trying to grill or roast veggies as the main ingredient in at least one meal per week. Because as most of you know, I treat my body like a temple. As my physique would confirm.

As a very wise and very old man (labworm) once said: "some folks like smooth peanut butter and some folks like crunchy"! Profound on so many levels.

Looks great to me except I would have to have a little more cheese on top of it.
Can do without the meat just fine.

Kudos on you pizza; bet it tastes as good as it looks.

But I'd like to leave you with an old Italian proverb...

"Never trust a skinny cook".

 

[NMPinNYC]

Loving the idea, this sounds great. The style - the size of the pieces of vegge is big and tasty not in tiny slivers; the homeiness of it, the great smells in the house as the vegetables roast. Hope you throw in some peeled garlic cloves as well, that would be a great flavor.

In my homemade pizzas I've found the fresh mozz a bit runny for me, and the store bought shrink wrapped stuff a bit drier and didn't weep as much, although not as romantic or beautiful as the fresh... Would likely outrageous with a fresh smoked mozzarella too. Oh yeah. Looks GREAT!

 

[wyccad915]

That Sure is a lot of veggies. I would have to agree with pawngal that I would add more cheese

 

[labworm]

I'm sure I would love a slice of that pie.

Probably would be crunchy rather than smooth.

I roast potatoes, carrots and meatballs in one roasting pan, out of this world.

Whenever you and that Hillbilly77 are in the same thread I have to watch out.

Kozmic: That is a good looking pizza.
