“Goazzarella” Caprese Mini Pizzas

Dear Goat Cheese,
Thank you for being amazing. Thank you for your endless varieties: chevre, feta, cheddar, brie, jack, mozzarella…Thank you for letting me be weird and refer to your mozzarella as “goazzarella”. Its way more fun. You are nomalicious. I heart you.

Obsessively Sincerely Yours,

Rande

Ingredients:

1 eggplant
butter or coconut oil (optional)
your favorite organic marinara sauce
goat mozzarella (or “goazzarella” as I like to call it)
fresh basil

Preheat oven to 450. Slice eggplant into 1/2 inch slices. You can coat them with oil/butter or not, I tried each variety and they both worked. Place eggplant slices on a cookie sheet (oiled if you’re not coating the eggplants with anything). Bake for 10 minutes. Pull out of the oven and top with marinara. Bake for a couple of minutes to heat the marinara. Add the cheese and broil for another minute. Top with freshly chopped basil.

Goazzarella goodness was accompanied by these Ice Cream Sandwich Pancakes, I filled them with Peanut Butter Ice Cream for Britney and made myself a bowl of stevia sweetened Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.
