ROASTED BEET PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• Leave root and 1 inch of stem on beet; scrub with a brush. Wrap beet in foil. Bake at 450° for 40 minutes or until tender. Remove from oven; cool. Trim off beet root; rub off skin. Cut beet in half crosswise; thinly slice halves.
• Roast potato slices and shallots (first lightly coat with EVOO and salt them) at the same time you roast the beets. Roast for about 8 minutes then toss or turn. Check again in 8 minutes.
• Position an oven rack in the lowest setting. Place a pizza stone on lowest rack.
• Increase oven temperature to 500°. Preheat pizza stone 30 minutes before baking pizza.
• Mix olive oil and crushed garlic together.
• Gently brush garlic oil over Basic Pizza Dough. Arrange cheese, beet slices, shallots, and potatoes evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
• Slide dough onto preheated pizza stone, using a spatula as a guide.
• 6. Bake at 500° for 8 minutes or until crust is golden. Remove from pizza stone. Sprinkle with salt, and drizzle with honey. Cut into 8 wedges.
