Butternut Squash Pizza

I got this recipe from my sister-in-law Danielle and she got it from Real Simple.  If you've never picked up a real simple magazine you are missing out, there are a ton of great things inside!  This pizza is excellent although it's not a favorite of David's (no pepperoni).

2 lb. butternut squash

1 yellow onion

3 tbsp. olive oil

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

thyme 

pizza dough of your choosing

1/2 c. ricotta cheese

Heat the oven to 400F.  Peel the squash and cut into 1/2 inch rings and then into 1 inch cubes.  Chop the onion into chunks.  Toss the squash and onion with the olive oil, salt and pepper.  Roast in the oven until squash is tender, about 20 minutes.  Spread the pizza dough on a pan.  Spread squash mixture over the dough, sprinkle with thyme leaves and dab with dollops of ricotta.  Bake in a 450F for about 15-20 minutes.
