My father and I used to order a pizza like this from a place in Tinseltown. Here's my homemade version of that delicious pie. Ingredients:
1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 pound ground beef |
1 can (7 ounces) pizza sauce |
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms |
1/2 cup chopped green pepper |
1/4 cup sliced seeded jalapeno peppers, optional |
1 can (2-1/4 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) stewed tomatoes, drained |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. On a greased baking sheet, roll bread dough into a 14-in. x 10-in. rectangle, building edges up slightly. Prick thoroughly with a fork. Brush dough with olive oil. Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Spread pizza sauce over crust. Top with beef, mushrooms, green pepper, jalapeno peppers if desired, olives and tomatoes; sprinkle with cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 12 servings.
