White pizza

Given the tomato blight, we're experimenting with white pizza. The latest version follows. Everything except the flour, olive oil and cheese came from the garden.

Pizza dough (enough for two 12" diameter pizzas)
6 leaves of (white-stemmed) swiss chard (from the Bright Lights variety)
A tablespoon or two of fresh oregano
2 heads of garlic, roasted
olive oil
onions
peppers
pizza cheese

Briefly cook the swiss chard in boiling water and drain well. Puree with the oregano, roasted garlic and a splash of olive oil (enough to make it spreadable).

Shape the pizza dough and spread with the chard/herb puree. Top with onions and peppers and cheese. Bake in hot (400 degrees +) oven for aobut fifteen minutes, until cheese is melted and crust is cooked through.
