2. Cooking Directions
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a small glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine the pimientos with the vinegar and set aside.
- In a large nonstick frying pan, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the onions and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the pimiento mixture.
- Divide the onion mixture between the 2 pizza shells. Top each with half of the fontina, Roquefort, and Parmesan.
- Bake the pizzas directly on the oven rack (for a crisper crust) or on two baking sheets until the cheese melts, about 15 minutes.
Yield: 4 servings
3. Still Hungry?
Fontina, Roquefort, and Parmesan form the sassy cheese trio here. Their piquant flavor blends delectably with the pimientos and sweet golden onions.
Notes:
If you prefer to start with store-bought pizza dough or your own homemade dough, simply follow the instructions in Step 1 of the recipe for Mushroom, Zucchini, and Swiss-Cheese Pizza , to prebake the crust before topping it.

Well...
Whitney - September 3, 2007 03:22:15 PM PSTThe recipe says it serves 4 and makes 2 pizzas. I guess that's about the right amount of calories for half a pizza...

john.patter - April 28, 2008 03:41:52 PM PSTDon't waste your time with this recipe, just order Round Table. Always the best pizza. And, if you're looking for so called "HEALTHY" food, well PIZZA IS NOT IT!

I agree
Val G - August 27, 2007 04:12:05 PM PSTThat is huge amount of calories and fat. Those are the kind of numbers you get at some of the chain restaurants like Applebee's or Chili's. If I'm going to make a recipe at home, I look for something that is tasty AND healthy!
