Spread the pizza dough on a baking sheet or pizza peel.
Spread the tomato sauce, then add the tomato and bell pepper slices.
Sprinkle with grated Mozzarella and olives.
When the oven is hot, bake for about 10 minutes (time to be adjusted according to the oven).
At the end of the cooking time, sprinkle with basil leaves.
For the eggplant:
Using a sharp knife, score the eggplant with slashes, without completely cutting through it.
Place it in an ovenproof dish with a lid (clay or cast-iron casserole dish, for example), along with 11 unpeeled garlic cloves.
Peel and press the last garlic clove.
In a small bowl, combine the pressed garlic, oil, vinegar, herbs, salt and pepper.
Pour the mixture over the eggplant, making sure it goes into the cuts.
Close the dish and bake for 1 hour.
Enjoy on its own or with rice, mashed or not.
For the fennel salad:
Using a mandolin or a sharp knife, slice the fennel into thin strips.
Cut the apple in 4, remove the seeds and slice it into thin strips.
Slice the radishes with a mandolin.
In a salad bowl, combine the fennel, apple, radishes, crushed walnuts and chopped dill.
In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, honey, oil, salt and pepper.
