Like most American families, mine loves pizza. And since Dayton is not known for fine pizza establishments, we have yet to settle on that must-have pizza. In effort to save money, we've resorted to homemade pizzas, and tonight, I found one my family gobbled up!
Tomato & Basil Pizza
1 Pillsbury pizza crust (refrigerator section)
1 c. pizza sauce
2 Roma tomatoes, cut in 1/4" slices
fresh basil leaves, washed & whole
red onion, diced or in chunks (optional)
1/2-3/4 block Mozzarella cheese cut in chunks
Spread dough onto baking sheet as directed on package. I chose to make a pie, so I had to do a little cut & paste. Spread sauce over dough and top with fresh basil leaves, tomato slices, onions, and Mozzarella slices. Bake @ 450° for 15-20 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
Serves 4
Easy Homemade Pizza Sauce
1-15oz. can tomato sauce
Season as desired with oregano, basil, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, etc.
Cook in a small pan to allow flavors to blend.
I split this in half, using half for one pizza, then freezing the other half to use at a later date.
