I’ve got the Mediterranean on my mind…
June 8, 2010 – 8:12 amIt’s difficult to focus when the blue waters of the Mediterranean are calling. “Chelsea, Chelsea, come swim with me…,” they whisper and I am listening. I’m a mere two days from jetsetting to Barcelona, so office work is solely centered on scheduling and organizing for the days that I’ll be gone. My Leadership Team and I have been preparing for weeks for my departure and we seem ready to go. In honor of this gorgeous and historical destination, I want to share a recipe with you. It’s delicious and low in calories and fat, so enjoy!
Mediterranean Pizza
- 1 ½ cups prepared hummus (store bought or homemade) – I used pesto hummus
- ¼ cups roasted red peppers, sliced into thin strips
- ½ whole cucumber, thinly sliced
- ½ whole red onion, thinly sliced
- ½ cups black olives, halved
- ½ cups feta cheese crumbles
- ¼ cups fresh parsley, minced
- 1 whole 12″-16″ pizza crust (I bought mine pre-baked)
Spread the hummus over the crust to within 1/2-inch of the edges. Evenly space the roasted red pepper strips over the hummus. Arrange the cucumber slices over the top, then the red onions and black olives. Scatter the feta cheese crumbles evenly over the top and sprinkle the minced parsley over everything. Slice into wedges or squares and serve at room temperature. Enjoy!
