* 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch strips
* 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
* 1 cup sliced mushrooms
* 3/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 4 garlic cloves, minced

* 1 cup (4 ounces) preshredded reduced-fat pizza-blend cheese
* 3 plum tomatoes, cut into (1/4-inch-thick) slices
* Cooking spray

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375°.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan. Add eggplant, bell pepper, and onion; sauté 3 minutes or until eggplant begins to soften. Reduce heat to medium. Add mushrooms, and cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add Italian seasoning, salt, and garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

Place crust on a baking sheet. Spread vegetable mixture evenly over crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Arrange the chicken over vegetable mixture; sprinkle evenly with cheese. Arrange tomatoes over cheese, and lightly coat with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and tomatoes are softened. Sprinkle with parsley.

Instead of using a Japanese Eggplant, I used regular eggplant. This is one of the most amazing things I have ever eaten, so delicious I wanted more!

I think the Basil really stepped it up. Some reviewers said it had no flavor and that it wasn't good, but mine was FULL of flavor and super tasty!
