Ingredients

sicilian pizza dough (Sicilian Pizza Dough)
1 can roasted chopped tomato
1 jar roasted red pepper
1 head garlic
1/4 - 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 can sliced black olives
6 ounces feta cheese
5 thinly sliced mushrooms
1 cup fresh spinach, leaves cut in half
1/2 cup fresh basil, shredded
2 -3 tablespoons pine nuts
salt and pepper

Directions

1

Heat a pizza stone in a 425 F oven for one hour before use.
2

Peel and slice all garlic cloves and place in olive oil to perfume it.
3

This is the oil you will use for the rest of the recipe.
4

Brush rimmed baking sheet with some olive oil to coat.
5

After pizza dough has rested 30 minutes, per recipe, punch down and dump into baking sheet.
6

With oiled fingers, dimple and stretch/push dough to fill sheet, with edges being a bit higher for crust.
7

Brush with olive oil and spread garlic over dough, leaving 3/4 inch crust.
8

(you should have a fair amount of oil left) Place baking sheet on pizza stone and bake for 7-10 minutes, until very light tan/brown.
9

Remove from oven and spread a layer of crushed/chopped tomatoes.
10

Add the rest of the ingredients in any order that appeals to you!
11

That's the best part of pizza- you can add to, delete and embelish any way you want.
12

I usually drizzle a bit more olive oil over the whole thing again, and brush the crust a bit more.
13

Place baking sheet back on pizza stone for another 12-16 minutes, until the crust is a nice golden brown and it smells wonderful!
14

Remove from oven, and slide pizza from baking sheet to a cutting board.

Enjoy!
