I can give up meat, for the most part, but I can never, EVER, give up pizza.
{Don't even ask.}
Lately, I have discovered the joy of making my own pizza. I like the crust to be thick. I like the cheese to be plentiful. I like the toppings to be fresh.
One of my favorite pizzas is margherita pizza. This is my go-to when I am out and have to order something that does not involve meat. So many restaurants have amazing flatbread versions that are so amazingly delish!
Last night I made my own, simple, thick crust version, using these four ingredients:
can of pizza dough
basil pesto
mozzarella cheese
thinly sliced tomato
I simply rolled out the dough on a pizza stone (seasoned with cornmeal), spread on a layer of basil, sprinkle as much mozzarella as desired, and add my slices of tomato. Season with salt and pepper...
Bake for 12-15 minutes at 425F.
Slice and indulge...while watching The Bachelor!
{Won't give that one up either.}
