Today, we ate pizza for dinner. Not store-bought though. This is a homemade 12-inch Gorgonzola cheese, butternut squash and pancetta (Italian bacon) pizza. Man was it good! We went light on the cheese which made it not any less good, but more waistline-friendly.
We started by roasting the squash in the oven to soften and brown it up. Then we sautéed chopped pancetta until rendered and added a little garlic and onions. When the onions became translucent, we set the pancetta aside.
At the same time, we prepared the pizza dough from a brand-name pizza mix packet. The dough was spread out on a floured pizza paddle and the toppings went on. Then, after about 12 minutes on the pre-heated pizza stone, it looked as you see it here. Click for a larger image.
