Hi...
I made this pizza Thursday night. We all thought it was very good, but my younger son Scott thought it was a bit odd!!! But you all know me, if the recipe seems a little weird, then I have to try it! When and if I get a chance to make it again, I don't think I will make the recipe for the pizza dough...more trouble than it is worth! (but of course, I did have to try to make my own dough!) I will just get a packaged or refrigerated pizza dough!
Enjoy!

1 package active dry yeast (2-1/2 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup warm water (100F to 105F)

For your favorite pizza: Transfer dough to a large cookie sheet or pizza pan coated with nonstick cooking spray. Top as desired.
