Category: Pizza

2 cans refrigerated pizza dough
2 3/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (divided use)
3/4 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
3/4 cup provolone cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp grated Romano cheese
toppings of your choice (pepperoni, bell peppers, olives, etc.)
1 jar pizza sauce


1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
2. On a lightly floured surface, unroll first pizza dough. Using a rolling pin dusted with flour, roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
3. Place in a well-greased 12-inch perforated pizza pan. Trim dough with a knife or pizza wheel to fit inside the diameter of the pan. Pierce dough with a fork every half-inch to prevent air bubbles. (This will ultimately be your top crust.) Prebake this crust for 5 minutes; remove crust from pan and place on a wire rack to cool.
4. Prepare the second crust for the pan in the same way, but remove the excess dough around the edges by rolling a rolling pin over the top of the pan to form a lip on the crust. Pierce with a fork.
5. Combine 3/4 cup mozzarella and remaining cheeses and spread evenly over this crust. Put the partially baked crust on top of the cheese layer. Spread 1/2 cup of pizza sauce over this top crust, then scatter the toppings of your choice, starting with meats, then vegetables. Finish with the final 2 cups of mozzarella.
6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
