White Pizza with Roasted Tomatoes image

Like my grandmother taught me, I love using fresh, simple ingredients. In this low-cost recipe, creamy ricotta brings out the sweetness of the tomatoes, all on an onion and herb crust. -Debbie Roppolo, San Marcos, Texas

This pizza was easy to make and turned out great! I used a pre-made pizza crust to save time and it worked perfectly. The roasted tomatoes added a nice sweetness to the pizza. I will definitely be making this pizza again.

This pizza was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some additional seasonings to the roasted tomatoes. The crust was also a bit too thick for my liking.

This pizza was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but overall it was still pretty good. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less cheese.
