Dandelion Pizza???

Why yes, that was what was for dinner and it was awesome.

In our CSA this week we received dandelion greens.  Last year I remember not liking them at all.  They are a very bitter green and they remind me of the weeds we try to get rid of not of dinner.

This year I was determined to enjoy them.  I couldn't find any recipe on-line that was similar to what I was looking for so I came up with one on my own.

I didn't have time to determine a serving size as the human roommate ate about 3/4 of the pizza before I could take a bite.


Ingredients:
1lb  Whole Wheat Pizza Dough
4oz Goat Cheese
1/2 bunch Dandelion Greens
1/2 medium White Onion
1/4c and 1 tsp of Balsamic Vinegar
1/4c Sun Dried Tomatoes
2 tsp Sriracha Sauce
salt and pepper

Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 500.  If you are using a pizza stone place it in the oven and let heat for at least 30 minutes.
2) Role out the pizza dough to the desired crust thickness. If not using a pizza stone roll the dough onto a baking sheet.
3) Combine the balsamic vinegar and the sriracha sauce in a small bowl .  Pour into a small pan over medium heat.  Once the balsamic is reduced pour it over the crust as the sauce for the pizza.
4) Spread the crumbles on top of the balsamic vinegar.
5) Dice the sun dried tomatoes and spread over the cheese.
6) Thinly slice the onion and caramelize in small pan.  While I was cooking the onion I added a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar.
7) Chop the dandelion greens and place over the pizza.  Don't worry that it looks like a lot of greens, they will cook down in the oven.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
8) Place the pizza in the oven and cook the pizza until cooked through.  It took about 7 minutes with the stone.  It may take about 20 minutes with a baking sheet.
