Extra Cheese Pizza Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

1 thin-crust Italian bread shell, (11 1/2" dia)
1 cup Contadina Original Pizza Sauce
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/3 cups shredded part-skim-milk (1/3 less fat)
mozzarella cheese
1/2 tsp crushed dried oregano
1/2 tsp crushed dried basil
Crushed red pepper flakes, (optional), to taste

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place the shell on an ungreased 12-inch nonstick pizza pan.

To assemble the pizza, spread the pizza sauce over the shell, leaving a 1-inch border around the rim. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and half of the mozzarella.

Sprinkle evenly with oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Top with remaining mozzarella.

Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until the crust is crisp and the cheese is melted and browned. Cut into 6 wedges.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?”

~ Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772)
