An indulgence, but also a good way to sneak in extra veggies! An indulgence, but also a good way to sneak in extra veggies!

Ingredients

    Crust:
    2 1/4 to 2 1/2 cups flour
    1 pkg. (21 grams) active dry yeast
    1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 tsp. pepper
    1 c. warm water
    1/2 1 medium zucchini, grated or shredded

    Sauce:
    1/3 c. onion, finely chopped
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 tbsp. butter or margerine
    1 tbsp. flour
    1/8 tsp. white pepper
    1 c. milk
    1/2 chicken bouillon cube OR 1/4 tsp. instant granules
    1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese

    Toppings:
    1/2 1 med. zucchini grated or shredded
    Mozzarella cheese (I used about 1 1/2 c.)
    2 chicken breasts, sauteed and chopped into bitesize pieces
    1 med zucchini, diced and sauteed

Directions

To make the crust:
Preheat oven to 425 F. Combine 1 cup of flour, yeast, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well. Add grated zucchini and water. Mix until almost smooth, then gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes. Roll or pat into pan that has been greased and sprinkled with cornmeal. Prick bottom with a fork. Bake for 8 minutes.

To make the sauce:
In a saucepan cook the onion and garlic in margerine or butter until onion is tender, but not brown. Stir in flour and pepper. Add the milk and bouillon all at once. Cook and stir until slightly thick and bubbly. Stir in Parmesan cheese.

Saute diced chicken breasts until cooked through, saute chopped zucchini lightly (to desired texture - will remain firm in oven).

Spread Parmesan sauce on crust, then top with remaining grated zucchini and mozzarella. Add chicken and diced zucchini. Bake another 10-12 minutes, until cheese is melted and just beginning to brown.

Makes 8 servings.

**A note to parents: The zucchini does not change the texture of the crust or the sauce... if you peel it before grating it, your kids will never know it's there! The sauce is fairly rich, so one piece is enough!
