-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 sun-dried tomato halves
1 1/2 tablespoons pine nuts
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
6 ounces shallots -- (4 large) peeled and thinly sliced crosswise
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1/4 cup herbed goat cheese
12 mini whole wheat pitas -- 2-inch diameter
Preheat the oven to 350F. Place the tomatoes in a small bowl. Add boiling water to cover and let stand 15 minutes,or until softened. Drain well and finely chop. Meanwhile, cook the pine nuts in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring often, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Tip onto a plate and let cool.
Heat the oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the shallots are softened and golden. Add the sugar and cook for 2 minutes longer, or until the shallots are golden brown, stirring frequently. Stir in the vinegar and chopped tomatoes and cook for 1 minute longer.
Spread 1 teaspoon of the cheese on each mini pita and arrange on a baking sheet. Spoon 1 rounded measuring teaspoon of the shallot mixture onto each pita and sprinkle the pine nuts on top, dividing evenly. Bake for 6 minutes, or until heated through.
To make ahead: the shallot mixture can be refrigerated for up to 2 days in advance. Assemble and bake the pizza as needed.
Makes 6 servings
AuthorNote: our pita pizzas feature a sprinkling of pine nuts, which are extracted from certain kinds of pinecones. While these light and flavorful nuts are high in fat, most of it is monounsaturated. And just 1 ounce packs an impressive 4 grams of fiber.
