Pizza

This is an easy one. We'll be cooking this in our electric skillet. So some of you out there may have our exact pan (aka Summers family) so this recipe is for you! If you don't have one, then just bake it like a normal pizza.

Ingredients:
  • 1 package of pizza dough
  • My Marinara or pizza sauce
  • Mozzarella, shredded
  • Toppings galore (mushrooms, onions, olives, etc.)
  • Olive oil
  • Italian Seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425.
2. Spread out dough to fit pan (cool) or sheet.
3. Spoon sauce on and pile on the toppings! I put a little cheese on before toppings and then top with more cheese to "seal" it all in, like a cheese envelope! Yay for the mail!
4. Sprinkle olive oil and seasoning over pizza (you'll be surprised by how much flavor and difference this makes).
5. Cover and cook for 10 minutes at 325, or 18 minutes in the oven.
6. Let stand, covered for 10-15 minutes (you can wrap foil around the oven version to keep it hot).
7. Cut and serve; top with the Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes! Mmm, mama mia!

Note: for pan users, do not lift cover during cooking or standing time!
