ROASTED SQUASH AND SAGE PIZZA (OR PITA PIZZA OR BURRITO)
This is my favorite pizza ever. The roasted goodness of the squash goes perfectly with the tang of the tomato sauce. It looks like a long ingredient list, but it's mostly spices. This recipes makes enough toppings for two big pizzas, 6 pita pizzas, or 6-8 burritos. Everything can be made ahead and then assembled and popped into the oven. Adjust the level of "hot" you like by increasing or decreasing the red pepper. If you only want to make one pizza, halve the ingredients (except for the squash and sage, you gotta roast the whole thing -- and you'll love the roasted squash as is as a side dish.) I found this recipe in the September 2008 issue of Delicious Living magazine.
