Roasted Eggplant Pizza

Ingredients

  • 7 sheets phyllo pastry, thawed
  • 1 large purple onion, sliced
  • 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 pound eggplant, peeled and diced
  • 2 Tbsp. dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 can (6 oz.) tomato paste
  • 2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1-1/2 cups (6 oz.) Sargento® Shredded Reduced Fat Mozzarella Cheese
  • 3/4 cup (3 oz.) Sargento® Artisan Blends™ Shredded Parmesan Cheese

Directions

  1. Place one sheet phyllo pastry on a lightly greased 12-inch pizza pan; spray evenly with cooking spray. Place another sheet of phyllo on top at a right angle to first sheet; spray with cooking spray. Continue with remaining phyllo sheets. (The overhanging sheets of phyllo will form a circle around the pizza pan.)
  2. Roll extending edges toward center of pizza pan to form a rim. Coat with cooking spray. Cut six 1-inch slits in bottom of phyllo pastry; bake at 450°F for 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
  3. Combine onion, green pepper and eggplant in a jelly roll pan coated with cooking spray; add Italian seasoning and pepper; toss well. Bake at 450°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until tender.
  4. Combine tomato paste and vinegar; spread on phyllo crust. Sprinkle with Mozzarella cheese; spoon eggplant mixture over cheese. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 400°F for 15 minutes or until cheese melts.
