Millie and Rose Mary inspired me with her goat cheese operation. I had some ground lamb in the freezer and some mint on hand. I also had a pizza crust I needed to use. I went with a completely Greek theme. Mint, lamb, goat cheese, sun dried tomatoes, pine nuts and rosemary. Wow. This pizza is very unusual. Add on some Kalamata olives, peppers and ...more...oh my. I hope you will give this a try.

How To Make lamb&goat cheese pizza, sundried tomatoes&mint

  • 1
    Lightly oil a pizza stone with olive oil and gently press on the dough. (Use Jamie Oliver's Pizza crust recipe if you can...if not, canned refrigerated crust will do). Bake in a 400 F oven for 8 minutes.
  • 2
    While the crust is pre-baking, chop and slice veggies and brown the lamb in a tablespoon of olive oil. When almost brown, drain in a colander to remove oil.
  • 3
    Remove the pre-baked crust from the oven, lightly brush with olive oil. Sprinkle on the Rosemary leaves, onion, and lamb.
  • 4
    Drain the rehydrated tomatoes, top with slices of red and green peppers. Top with pine nuts and olives.
  • 5
    Top all with goat cheese and slices of fresh mozzarella, mint and a sprinkle of red chile flakes.
  • 6
    Bake for 10-14 minutes more at 400 F. Remove from oven and allow to sit 5 minutes before cutting.
