Boursin Cheese And Sun Dried Tomato Pizza Recipes

ARTICHOKE SUN-DRIED TOMATO PIZZA

Steps:

• Mix water with yeast and sugar in a large mixing bowl, set aside for 5 minutes to let it bloom.
• Add the garlic, oil, salt and herbs.
• Add about 1 1/2-2 cups flour, mix well.
• Pour onto a floured board, add remaining flour as needed, knead for about 5 minutes (this dough is really soft).
• Cover with the mixing bowl.
• Let rise about 20-30 minutes or until doubled in bulk.
• Punch dough down, knead on lightly floured board, set aside.
• Coat your pizza pan with olive oil.
• Place the dough in pan, roll out in pan.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Spoon and spread the dough with the sauce.
• Sprinkle with the herbs and seasonings.
• Decorate with the artichokes, olives, onions, black olives,.
• and sundried tomatoes.
• Sprinkle with the cheese.
• Cook until bottom in golden, spray crust with the cooking spray, broil for about 1 minute to melt cheese and make it bubbly.
• Let stand 2 minutes, cut and enjoy.
• FYI, you can also make this pizza with some chopped, drained and defrosted spinach instead of the artichoke hearts and it is just as fantabulous.

BOURSIN, TOMATO AND CUCUMBER NIBBLES

Steps:

• Cut the cucumber in half length-ways and slice a little off the bottom to make it sit flat on the plate. Note: you can peel the cucumber if you prefer or if the skin is tough - it's easier to do this before slicing in half.
• Scoop out the seeds and discard them.
• Fill the hollow of the cucumber with the Boursin or cream cheese, smooth top with a knife.
• Cut the cucumber into bite sized pieces and top each one with a basil leaf and a tomato. Secure with a cocktail stick.
• Drizzle with some of the olive oil from the tomatoes.
• Chill until ready to serve.
