We liked this pretty well, but I think I'll tweak it a bit next time. First, more herbs de provence would be nice--the small amount really was overwhelmed by the roast pepper. A bit more garlic would be nice, too. I used a pizza crust rather than Boboli (since I can't eat Boboli); I think brushing it with some olive oil and maybe a little garlic, and possibly a grind or two of sea salt, would be tasty. If one wanted more vegs, I think eggplant would be good on this, and/or some halved heirloom cherry tomatoes. Overall, it was a very nice veggie pizza, and a nice change from the usual veggie pizzas. Thanks for posting, ChipotleChick! Made for My 3 Chefs Fall 2008. UPDATE: upping to 5 stars, as it really grew on me, and also it reheated very well. Thanks again!
