Home Made Cured Meats Pizza

Contributed by: Melinda

This is totally flexible - just remember, it only takes a tiny amount of each ingredient to fill your pizza. If you make it too topping-heavy, it won't come out right.

What you need

  1. 1 recipe Basic Pizza Dough
  2. 1 recipe Basic Pizza Sauce (this will be slightly more than you need)
  3. 3/4 lb of shredded Mozzarella cheese
  4. 1/4 cup pepperoni slices
  5. 1/4 cup cooked italian sausage
  6. 1/4 cup proscuitto
  7. 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
  8. 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
  9. 1 cup grated romano or parmesan cheese
  10. Olive Oil (optional)
  11. Chopped fresh garlic and green onion (optional)

How to make it

  1. Preheat oven to 450-500º degrees with pizza stone inside
  2. Roll out pizza dough to approximately 12 inches (basic recipe makes two 12 inch rounds)
  3. If desired, brush the entire surface with olive oil
  4. Spoon a thin layer of pizza sauce over the top, leaving about 1/2 inch at edges
  5. Spread half the shredded Mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce
  6. Place half the meats and vegetables over the cheese and sprinkle with additional chopped garlic and green onion (optional)
  7. Sprinkle half the grated cheese over the top
  8. Using a pizza peel, place on baking stone and bake for 10-20 minutes, until edges are golden brown
  9. Remove from oven and let sit about 3-5 minutes before slicing
  10. Repeat for second pizza with remaining ingredients
