Roasted Bell Pepper & Olive Pizza

I made this pizza for us last Thursday night and it was very easy and was really good. I know when Justin approves because I either have to ask him it is good or he says this is really good. When he volunteers his opinion that means he really likes it! He volunteered his opinion on this one! It said this could be used as an appetizer also but I cut some of the ingredients in half to just make one pizza instead of two. It says one wedge is a serving size but I ate 2 and Justin had 3.

Serves 12, or cut recipe in half and it serves 6 (serving size: 1 wedge)


Ingredients
2 large red bell peppers (I used one)
2 large yellow bell peppers (I used one)
1/2 cup sliced green olives
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons drained capers (I omitted)
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
3/4 teaspoon olive oil
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 (1-pound) Italian cheese-flavored pizza crusts (such as Boboli) or focaccias (I used one)
6 tablespoons (1 1/2 ounces) freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions
Preheat broiler. Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise, and discard seeds and membranes. Place bell pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet, and flatten with hand. Broil 15 for minutes or until blackened. Place in a zip-top plastic bag, and seal. Let stand 15 minutes. Peel and cut into strips. Combine bell peppers, green olives, and next 5 ingredients (olives through black pepper) in a bowl.

Preheat oven to 350°.

Divide the bell pepper mixture evenly among pizza crusts; sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350° for 7 minutes or until cheese melts. Cut each into 12(or 6)wedges.
