Roasted cauliflower is one of my favorite roasted vegetables. I know, in the midst of pumpkin and squash mania (aka October) I should be gushing about something orange, but I’m gushing about something white.

Typically I stick to the basics, and drizzle the cauliflower  with olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper and roast until golden. But sometimes, once in a while, I add a little more flavah!

I loved this Italian twist with flavorful additions like capers and parmesan flakes. And I’m currently scheming up my next batch of roasted vegetables…

Martha (Stewart) strikes again.

I don’t have many of her cookbooks, but I’m a regular on her site and appreciate her knack for beautiful recipes using simple ingredients.

Her ricotta pizza combines simple ingredients that come together in minutes – perfect for weeknight dinners or those Friday nights when take-out is calling your name.

If you regularly read my blog, you know I have a little obsession with tortilla crust pizzas, but you can use whatever you prefer! Serve the pizzas with simply dressed greens or roasted vegetables.

Ingredients you’ll need:

  • Crusts (tortillas, pre-made crusts, french bread, pita)
  • Ricotta cheese
  • Red Onion, sliced thin
  • Mushrooms, roughly chopped
  • Hard cheese like parmesan or romano
  • Greens like arugula, spinach, or kale cut into ribbons

Steps:

  • Prep crust if necessary (I always bake my tortilla first to get it a little crispy and then top)
  • Spread with ricotta cheese
  • Top with mushrooms, onions, arugula and flavorful cheese
  • Bake until cheese is melty and toppings are golden brown
