Tropical Cheddar Pizza

Source: North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission

Serves: 8

Individual pizzas made with Boboli crust and a savory sweet potato puree as a base produce an unusual offering at suppertime. Various toppings make this Boboli a refreshingly quick meal and a welcome change from a traditional pizza. You could also use plain foccacia bread for a similar result.

Ingredients

9 slices	Canadian Bacon (or lean ham)
1 tablespoon	Olive Oil
8 slices	Pineapple
4 - 6 inch	Boboli ready made crust
1/2 cup	Mixed shredded monterey jack and chedder cheese
	Sweet Potato Base
2	Small Sweet Potatoes
2	Cloves of garlic
3 tablespoons	Butter
1/2 teaspoon	Salt
1/4 teaspoon	Finely ground black pepper

Preparation

First prepare the sweet potato base (may be done the day before)

Peel sweet potatoes or quarter. Place in a medium saucepan with whole garlic cloves and water to cover. Bring to boil and simmer 10-15 minutes until softened. Drain and puree in food processor with butter, salt and pepper.

Preheat oven to 450°F. In a large sauté pan lightly brown bacon slices. Remove to a cutting board and cut into wedges. Cut pineapple into similar sized triangles. Spread sweet potato puree evenly over Boboli crust and arrange pineapple and Canadian bacon pieces in a decorative pattern. Sprinkle cheese over Boboli.

Bake 10-15 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. Cut into wedges.
