Stuffed Pizza

This is one of my favorite recipes. It is surprisingly easy and very yummy. The best part about this recipe is that it is extremely adaptable. You can pretty much use any type of traditional or non-traditional pizza topping of your choosing. (I'm pretty sure this would make an awesome white pizza as well, but I haven't tried that yet.)

What You Need:

Springform Pan
rolling pin
a little bit of four
cooking spray

Ingredients:

WIC Ingredients:
Cheese
various Veggies (like I said any traditional or non-traditional toppings)
 -I used fresh mushrooms. We tried the restaurant blend with oyster, shiitake, and mini portobello's. It turned out really good. Different than your typical pizza but very good.

Other Ingredients
Instant Pizza dough 2 boxes (if you want to make it from scratch more power to you)
pepperoni
olives
artichokes
Sauce

Like I said before I am just telling you the toppings that I used, you can feel free to experiment with all kinds of different things.

Start out by following the directions for the dough. Once you are done separate it into two lumps, one using one third of the dough and the other using two thirds. Take the larger section and roll it out flat on a floured surface.

(You want to make sure to use a rolling pin here, or a cup with four on it, to flatten out the dough. If you try to stretch it out by hand then it just ends up ripping and it wont fit the form right. It will make you very frustrated and you will waddle your massively pregnant self over to the couch to cool down. Only to come back and fine that your wonderful significant other has discovered it is easier to roll the dough out and has taken care of it all for you... on second thought this might just happen to me.) Roll the dough out so it is big enough to cover to bottom and sides of the springform pan. Spray the pan with cooking spray, and line the pan with the dough.

 And now the fun begins. You can just start layering in the toppings to your hearts content until they reach about a fourth of an inch away from the top.

Once you have done that roll out the remaining dough and cover the top, pinching the top and bottom together, so, it is sealed nicely. Then poke holes in the top to let air escape while it's cooking.

Now cover the top with sauce and a little bit more cheese.

Now you want to cook the pizza according to the instructions on for the dough. (Don't worry it is enough to cook everything through.)

After you take the pizza out of the oven take the sides of the springform off very carefully, or to bottom of the pizza will get soggy as it cools.

After it cools down cut, and enjoy.
