Radicchio Pizza

1 large head radicchio

olive oil

sea salt and pepper, to taste

1 fresh whole grain pizza crust

_________________________________

1. Cut the radicchio in half, then slice each half crosswise into thin ribbons (as thin as possible). Dress with olive oil, salt, and pepper. This recipe also called for a few dashes of white truffle oil, but I couldn't find it at Publix or Trader Joe's. The pizza tasted great without it, but I'd give the truffle oil a try if you can find it!

2. Preheat the oven to 415 degrees. Toast the pizza crust in the oven for seven minutes or until it is heated through and slightly golden but not crunchy. Remove from oven and scatter the dressed radicchio over the pizza crust and return to the oven for another 3-5 minutes, until the radicchio is warm and just starting to wilt. Serve immediately.
