Vegetarian Pizza





1 package trader joes plain white pizza dough
1 large tomato-thinly sliced
1.5 cups fresh basil- torn/ripped to medium size pcs
1 can sliced mushrooms
1 can black olives ( I buy the large whole olives because I figure its cheaper than buying the cans of pre sliced olives and who can’t slice them on their own?)
1/2 zuchini- thinly sliced
1 jar of pasta sauce (marinara or whatever kind/brand you like)
1 bag mozz cheese shredded (daiya cheese- mozz style shredded if you want to make it totally vegan)




flour a flat surface for rolling out your pizza dough and proceed to roll out to your desired size/thickness. Once the dough is rolled out, place on a pizza stone or a baking sheet and adjust the parts of the dough with your fingers in the areas that need to be filled out. Then lightly brush with olive oil. Spread the pasta sauce over the dough surface until you are satisfied, layer with the cheese, and add the rest of your toppings. I put the tomatoes and basil on last and finish with another drizzle of olive oil. Place in preheated oven on 450 and cook for approx 15 minutes, be careful not to cook it too long, the trader joes crust will turn rock hard and be like a breadstick if you cook too long.
