Pizza, It's what's for dinner. This white pizza is a great showcase for wonderful mushrooms. Pick some up from our farm market friends this weekend, , and or hit us up at the Barberton Farmers Market on Tuesday.

Roast Garlic, Onion and Mushroom Pizza
• 1 head of garlic roasted (slice the top off a head of garlic, place in foil, drizzle with oil, salt and pepper. Wrap up foil and place in a shallow dish, bake in a 400° oven for 40-60 minutes, let cool and squeeze out the cloves)
• 1 medium onion, sliced and caramelized in some butter, lightly salted
• 1/2 pound of mushrooms, simple sauteed
• Parmesan cheese
• Chopped fresh herbs and/or chopped chives or green onions (optional)
• Your favorite pizza dough
(make your own or buy frozen)

Preheat oven to 475°
Stretch your dough out on your preferred lightly greased pan. Spread roasted garlic cloves all over the dough, top with sauteed onions, then cooked mushrooms. Sprinkle cheese. Bake for 10-15 minutes (may take longer depending on how thick your crust is), until the crust is browned. Allow to cool slightly before slicing. Top with fresh herbs if using.
*note: you can saute the onions and mushrooms in the same pan, just remove the mushrooms from the pan and then do the onions. You can cook them together (onions first, then mushrooms once the onions are soft) however, your mushrooms may not brown as well.
