Ingredients: 1 roll pillsbury pizza crust
1 8 oz can Contadina pizza sauce
1 16 oz jar Gino's pizza sauce, (only using half)
1 small jar or can of sliced mushrooms
1 8 oz can large ripe olives, sliced
1 sweet yellow onion, sliced
1 1 - 2 cup bag of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 1 - 2 cup bag mild cheddar cheese

Directions: |
Directions:Preheat the oven to 400° F
Put parchment paper 1/2" - 1" over edges of jelly roll pan, (cookie sheet with sides - size of my pan 16" x 12" x 1")
Sprinkle paper lightly with corn meal, (use no oil)
Spread 1 refrigerated roll of pillsbury pizza dough on top of corn meal to the sides, (if it starts to cling to paper lift and sprinkle a bit more corn meal under it & try to spread dough up the sides just a bit to help hold the sauce, (pinch back together any tear holes as you go)
Add a thin sprinkle of garlic powder, (Not garlic salt) over the dough all the way to edges
In a bowl combine one 8 oz. can of contadina pizza sauce and use that can to measure 8 oz. of the Gino's pizza sauce, (it won't take all of this mixture unless you like a lot of sauce) make several piles of sauce with spoon & then spread over entire surface in a circular motion evenly, (if you get too much you can carefully remove a bit, I always have a few teaspoons leftover)
Then add ...
1 whole sliced yellow sweet onion spread out,
Cover to edges with pepperoni slices but no overlapping
1 small jar or can of sliced mushrooms, drained
1/2 to 1 8 oz can large pitted ripe olives, sliced, (I use a lot because I love black olives!)
1 - 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese sprinkled over entire surface
1/2 - 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese sprinkled over entire surface
Bake at 400° for 40 minutes, Note: since oven times vary, (use spatula to gently lift a front corner at 30 minutes if crust is still white in color continue to bake for full time) at 40 minutes lift crust edge to see if crust is just starting to turn very light golden brown) if so, remove from oven onto a cooling rack, cut & serve. If not, add 10 minutes of baking time, and keep checking until it does. |
