Easy Weeknight Pizza!

Weeknights can get a bit crazy with work, school, and trying to have a social life. It is easy to give in to the call of the take out menus when cooking becomes the last thing you want to do. So, instead of ordering a greasy pizza and waiting 45 minutes for it to be delivered, try this super easy recipe. 

My secret weapon is making my dough ahead of time and freezing it. When you actually have time to spend in the kitchen, make a giant batch of pizza dough, portion them out and freeze them. Easy peasy. If you do not have time for this step. I suggest looking for frozen or refrigerated dough at the grocery store. Try to avoid the ones in the cans! Make sure to look in the bakery, too. I have found dough from Corzo's located in Cleveland's Little Italy for this pizza.

One more thing that is important for homemade pizza is a pizza stone. Of course, you can make pizza without one, but it really makes a difference in the crust.

Ingredients:
Store bought or homemade pizza dough
marinara
mozzarella
Parmesan 
italian seasoning
toppings!
turkey pepperoni(diced)
mushrooms
onions
Directions:

• Preheat oven to 450 (and put the pizza stone in to preheat as well)
• Roll out dough, add sauce, cheese and toppings 
• Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until cheese is golden brown and crust is cooked through
