Pizza



Now, let's get to making my version of a Margarita pizza.  You will need the following.

-a pizza stone ( I found mine at Marshall's for about $10.00)
-a pizza peal ( Smart and Final about $5.00) *
-unbleached parchment paper.
-make a batch of super easy dough in the morning of the day you will be making your pizza.
-extra virgin olive oil.
-fresh mozzarella(trader Joe's)
-a few wedges of brie cheese.(trader Joe's)
-fresh or dried oregano, basil, red pepper flakes
-and what ever veggies you have.(I like to use mushroom's and squash)

First, make a batch of the pizza dough from yesterday. Then cut off a large enough piece of parchment paper to fit your pizza. Dust the paper with flour.  Dust your hands and reach in and pull out the dough. You should have enough dough for three to four pizzas.  If you used about 6 cup's of flour.  Spread out the dough with floured hands.  Drizzle with evoo, and sprinkle with herbs.  Then cut up veggies thin and place on dough.  Cut up the brie into small pieces and spread over top, and the same with the fresh mozzarella.  I salt and pepper mine.  It's ready for your preheated (500 degree) oven.  It should take about 30min. Your nose will let you know, and your eyes.  Now get ready for a great pizza.  love, Deb.

*My friend Tori has informed me that Smart & Final no longer carries the pizza peal and they aren't five bucks.  But, you can get them at those kitchen stores usually found in malls.  I am told that Target also has them.  Thank you Tori.
