Summer Squash & Goat Cheese Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Form an 8 inch round using your favorite pizza dough recipe, or 1/2 of a can of prepared dough such as Pillsbury.
  3. Combine the goat cheese, ricotta, lemon zest (reserve a pinch) and garlic in a small bowl.
  4. Stir until incorporated and velvety.
  5. Add a drizzle of olive oil if it is too clumpy.
  6. Room temperature cheeses will be helpful.
  7. On a greased baking sheet, spread the cheese mixture on the dough round, leaving a 1/8 inch border.
  8. Sprinkle the top of the cheese mixture with thyme and salt.
  9. Layer the thinly sliced squash discs on top of the cheese mixture in whatever arrangement you would like.
  10. I did concentric circles of each type, you could choose to alternate every other piece.
  11. Drizzle with olive oil and season with fresh cracked pepper to taste.
  12. Sprinkle with the reserved lemon zest.
  13. Put the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes.
  14. Remove baking sheet from oven.
  15. Using a spatula remove pizza from baking sheet and transfer directly the the oven rack.
  16. Finish baking for 3-4 minutes or until the edges of the crust and squash slices turn pretty and golden.
