Well got to get my blood pulled for cholesteral and liver function every 6 months as I'm on Zocor for high cholesteral. This was before the Egg even came along! :laugh: No cold beer or high fats tonight so since I had one pizza crust left I made a mediterranean pizza.
Start with a paso sause of 2/3 cup fresh bassel leafs, two teaspoons pine nuts, 1 large clove garlic. Blend well in food processor or blender. Added enough EVOO to make a nice thin paste and added 1/4 cup permashion cheese. Blending all well.
Spread the paso mix on crust and added artachock hearts, pine nuts, sun dryed tomatoes, and capers topped with fetta cheese.
Pop into Egg at 400-450 this time with stone good and hot till botom crust started to brown.
And ready to eat. For a low fat low cholesteral meal it's really good. The crust did better than last nights with the higher temp in the Egg as suggested. Thanks!

That's a nice recipe for a pizza, DP--don't worry, I've got you back for the cold lemonade this evening Good luck with the tests, man!

Let me explain some'en to ya, This low cholesteral stuff is till I get blood pulled tomorrow! :laugh: I made the mistake of pigging out on shrimp one night b4 I had my blood pulled and blew the top off the cholesteral chart. Dr. Trying To Help Me Live Longer told me to lay off the bad stuff the night before not 2 or 3 days b4 to cheat the test but just night b4.

Probably in my Hello Kitty shot glass no doubt!
My wife made her a Bahma Mama before supper and was trying to be cute and ask if I wanted a virgin one. Told her I'd stick with the double expressos! :laugh: -
looks great JL..interesting combo of flavors and textures...hard to beat feta cheese too!

Only thing better then fetta is fetta and a cold Porter! :woohoo:

Man that looks good.

Nice pizza guy. You allways come up with something different. I love pine nuts myself. I sometimes take the pine nuts and put in fry pan with some olice oil and toast them brings out a lot more flavor in them but don't toast to long. Good Cook

Looks good JL! Try your cook rocks between the plate setter and the pizza stone to let some circulation between them.
