Ingredients

  • 1 recipe pizza dough see NOTES
  • 1 large tomato beefsteak is good, sliced thinly (I used 8 slices and used a mandoline)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella -OR- 6-8 oz fresh mozzarella sliced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp shredded Asiago cheese optional
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil -OR- 1 tsp dried
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
  • Pat pizza dough in a deep 10-12-inch greased round pan (see post for other pans you can use)
  • Brush crust with the olive oil
  • Distribute shredded mozzarella over crust
  • Place one tomato slice in the center, then place the other slices around the outer edge.
  • Divide basil between each tomato
  • Sprinkle Parmesan over filling
  • Sprinkle Asiago over the top (optional but suggested)
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes

Notes

You can substitute pre-made store-bought pizza dough or a Boboli shell for the homemade pizza dough
For the homemade dough (link in recipe)--if using special pizza dough yeast, eliminate the dough resting time.
