  • Prepare dough by rolling out gently on a floured surface. Make a border by scoring dough about 3/4″ from edges, not quite cutting all the way through, and prick inside with a fork. Bake until just done and lightly golden.
  • Wash vegetables and cut lengthwise into very thin ribbons, discarding the outer peel. Halve tomatoes and drain on paper towels. Salt zucchini ribbons and drain on paper towels 15 minutes.
  • Spread baked crust with a layer of pesto sauce. Top with even dollops of Ricotta cheese, then a sprinkling of Parmesan. Layer veggies on top. Sprinkle with more Parmesan and pine nuts.
  • Bake at 350 30 minutes until veggies are done and crust is browned.
