White Tomato Pizza

A local restaurant where we live has the best white tomato pizza (it's Dovino's in case you live near me and want to try it). Adam & I both love it, especially because it's not as heavy as other pizzas, although we do love their special which has all kinds of meats:)!

When I was thinking about what kind of pizza to have on the whole wheat crust I made, I originally thought I would try a buffalo chicken pizza, since that kind of goes with the football season. Well, when I went to the store to get everything, they had the most gorgeous array of home grown tomatoes, so I immediately thought of the white tomato pizza since I already had ricotta at home. This was the perfect light pizza and went great with a salad, which we tossed the left over tomatoes in. This is a great healthier option for pizza as well, using a whole wheat crust, and part-skim ricotta.
