This is a fun and favorite pizza that me and my husband love to make. It was actually inspired by a trip to Guam. He was deployed (more like took a vacation) to Guam a couple of years ago while I was back at our home station in Alaska.
We didn't want to miss our first anniversary due to his deployment so I decided to fly to Guam for a couple of weeks to celebrate and take a little vacation myself. After I left, he had to stay to finish out his deployment..cough umm "vacation" he went to an outdoor pizza grill with some friends and had mentioned to the chef that he was vegetarian, the cook made him something special with hummus and sweet red chili sauce. Once my husband returned from Guam he wanted to recreate it. So this is the Guam inspired island hummus pizza.

DeleteHomemade pizza is the best!
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
DeleteThis looks awesome! As a gluten free vegan, I make homemade pizza all the time - but this is certainly a new spin on it. So the avocado did okay in the oven? I would think it would get brown? It looks SO YUMMY! Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteHi thanks, yeah the avocado did well in the oven, it has a couple of dark lines and the longer its in the more it will brown, but anything under 15 min. does just fine :)
