Faux Foccacia

I made this with some whole wheat Trader Joe’s pizza dough. I let the dough sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes (actually a subway ride) and then flattened it out and put it on a rimmed cookie sheet. Preheated the oven to about 375F and topped the dough with some olive olive oil, sliced onions, olives we had in the back of the fridge and a few of the cherry tomatoes we got from the CSA and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Popped that into the oven until it got golden brown and then ate it with some penne pasta with a tempeh ragu Phil made. Super easy and a nice addition to a meal. Would be great sliced into strips for a party as an appetizer!

I love Trader Joe’s whole wheat pizza crusts. They are cheap, tasty, and no too bad for you either. I like to make healthy pigs in a blanket. I take low calorie hot dogs, wrap them in dough, and then bake until crispy.
