Whenever I have a pizza craving (once a week, at least), this is my go-to.

Wow! Excellent find. Thanks for sharing.
Please tell us how you cook it. Pizza at home can be so tricky.

I posted the ingredients, but the short cuts are:

Turkey pepperoni over pork
Part skim mozzarella (I used 3oz, but you could easily get away with 2oz and cut another 100 cals)
The super thin crust you see in the ingredients
For sauce: Can of tomatoes, add salt and dried basil, then blend it (I use a hand blender)

But the biggest savings is the crust. I get it at Sprouts if you have those but I’m pretty sure there are other alternatives.

My family bought a pizza stone for our oven (available online or at specialty kitchen supply shops). While our pizza bakes at 425, we found the edges of our pizza would cook nicely while the bottom and center were still needing more time. But if you preheat your oven to 500 to get the stone nice and extra hot before placing the dough on the stone, then reduce the oven temp to 425 during the actual baking, then the hotter stone speeds up the cooking from below to match the nicely done top.

I may try that on my pizza steel
