This was great. All (4) of my kids ate it without a protest. A super way to get them to eat a few more vegetables. Thanks!

I made this recipe for Pick-a-Chef 2005. It's a really excellent pizza with a very good combination of flavors and colors. I think the "nutrition facts" for this recipe may need to be recalculated. I used reduced-fat ricotta and mozzarella cheeses, and just can't see how even their full-fat versions could have jacked this delicious pizza up to 57% fat. It seemed low-calorie, very healthy, and guilt-free to us :) I'm guessing that the only un-nutritious thing about this pizza was the ice cold soda that went so well with it!
