I am considering doing the Cool Veggie Pizza for a demo soon and was wondering if anyone has ever tried it with a little grated parmesan on top? I have never tried the recipe before but I will use ANY excuse to whip out my Microplane Adjustable Grater at a party (LOVE IT!:love:) and was hoping that parmesan would complement this recipe. Does anyone know?
 
I don't see why not. I usually put grated cheddar on it. But if you focused on the Italian flavors (use Italian seasoning instead of dill mix, add zucchini, etc) then it would be great with parmesan.
 
Mmm - I made these for a party I was invited to a few weeks ago, and they got completely gobbled up immediately. I think a little grated parmesan on top would be awesome (gotta try that next time!).
 
Grated parm is good on just about ANYTHING savory! Plus, the MPG makes it so "fluffy and airy" that it doesn't add a whole lot of taste unless you go crazy with it! I would definately add that to the top so you can showcase another product...I love that product too!
 
Great idea. Grated Parmesan would taste, and the classic Parmesan fragrance to each bite.
