Leek & "Bacon" Pizza
Can you say scrumptious? This awesome pizza with leeks, vegetarian bacon, green olive spread and Gorgonzola was indulgent and utterly amazing!
I used Trader Joe's plain pizza dough and spread it with one of my favorite flavor ingredients, green olive spread (I get mine from Cost Plus $4).
I cooked one big fat leek (chopped) in butter over med. low heat for about 6-8 minutes.
Topped the olive spread with a little grated mozzarella and the leeks. Grated about 2 oz of Gorgonzola over the leeks then topped it with 4 crumbled slices of Morningstar Bacon (vegetarian, but not vegan). Baked on a pizza stone at 450 for 10 minutes.
The blend of all these flavors was just incredible. Hubby just kept repeating, "You've really outdone yourself with this one."

I love pizza! I've never had green olive spread, but I bet I would like it. I'll have to keep my eyes open for that ingredient.
