Brussels Sprouts and Leek Pizza

Dear Turkey,

Golden and curly
Leeks and brussels sprouts topped with
Ricotta and parm


Brussels Sprouts and Leek Pizza
(serves 4, adapted from here)

Ingredients:
- 1/2 lb pizza dough
- 12 oz brussels sprouts, ends cut off and sliced thin
- 1 c cut up leeks
- 1 T olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 2 t garlic (I used dried)
- 1/2 c shredded or grated parm
- 1/2 c ricotta
- for topping/drizzling: olive oil, salt, pepper, balsamic glaze

Instructions:
- Heat the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and leeks. Let them start to caramelize for a few minutes, and then add the sprouts, cooking on medium/high heat, stirring often, until everything starts to caramelize and turn brown, about 10 minutes. 
- Meanwhile, stretch/roll out the dough as thin as you can, and place it on a piece of oiled parchment paper on a baking stone. Oil the top of the dough and sprinkle it with with salt and pepper. 
- Sprinkle half of the parm on the dough, followed by the veggies (feel free to heap them up!), the rest of the parm, and dollops of the ricotta.
- Bake at 450 F for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is cooked through. Finish under the broiler.
- Remove from heat and drizzle with balsamic glaze.

Enjoy,
Tofu
