Ingredients

  • 600 pumpkin cleaned
  • Tbs olive oil 
  • 120 feta cheese crumbled
  • 120 mozzarella cheese 
  •  eggs 
  • tsp oregano dried
  • Tbs parsley chopped
  • cloves garlic minced

Equipment

  • food processor
  • frying pan
  • oven
  • muffin tray

Directions

  1. Chop pumpkin using a food processor until rice-like.
  2. Saut pumpkin in hot olive oil for 3 minutes. Set aside and let cool.
  3. Mix feta and mozzarella; add, one at a time, eggs.
  4. Mix and combine.
  5. Add pumpkin and spices, mix well until well blended.
  6. Evenly spoon the mixture into the greased muffin tin molds. Press pizza dough down evenly and firmly (the pressing down firmly is very important to make sure they stick together).
