Aubergine Coin Pizzas

Italian food like the men and women is very chic, original and sumptuous. I first ate an authentic slice of pizza in our one hour bus stop over at Milan. That taste lingered on since 1999. Last evening, some friends were over. A few of them choose to be vegetarian. I decided to try aubergine coin pizzas. They were a smash hit.

Buy whole wheat coin pizzas. Or get the regular ones that you get at the grocery store and cut out circles with the lid of a bottle. A recommended diameter size would be 2 inches.

Use aubergines, the narrow ones, and cut out circles which would fit in on the coin pizza bases. Pat them with salt and pepper. Grill them for 10 minutes at 150 degrees heat, 5 minutes each side.

Spread pizza sauce (make a pizza sauce with tomatoes and oregano, a regular one) on the bread and on the aubergines. Place one aubergine on each pizza base. Sprinkle some mozzarella cheese. Decorate with a slice of black or green olive. Bake for ten minutes and serve fresh from the oven.
