Artichoke Pizza - YUM!!!

This recipe is the shizzle!!!!  I found this on recipegirl.com (I'm a daily recipe shopper there).  I made this for our Christmas Eve potluck, it was a huge hit.  I find myself thinking about it a lot, I guess it's time to make it again!

EASY ARTICHOKE PIZZA BITES

www.RecipeGirl.com

14 ounce can artichoke hearts packed in water, drained & chopped
½ cup pitted ripe olives, sliced
½ cup (2 ounces) grated fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
zest from 1 lemon (and always always use real lemon, you CAN taste the difference :)
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, minced
13.8 ounce package refrigerated pizza crust (DS:  I made my own crust, but in a pinch, I buy crusts from The Bulk Cheese Warehouse and as they are pre-baked, lower the oven temperature to about 350, or you will burn the bottom crust)
2 medium Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced and then cut in half
1 tsp Italian seasoning

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

2. In a medium bowl, combine artichokes, olives, ¼ cup cheese, lemon zest, mayonnaise and garlic; mix well.

3. Unroll pizza dough and arrange on large round baking stone, shaping into a circle. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll dough to edge of baking stone. Spread artichoke mixture evenly over crust to within ½-inch of edge. Arrange tomato slices over pizza; sprinkle with Italian seasoning mix and remaining cheese.

4. Bake 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown. Remove from oven; let stand 10 minutes. Cut into squares using a pizza cutter; serve immediately.

Servings: 16

Cooking Tips:
*If you don’t have a baking stone, use a greased cookie sheet instead.
