Pizza Pizza

Last night I made some chunky marinara sauce for pasta. If I do say so, it was delish. Well, there was left over. Today while at work, I was trying to be creative about dinner and nothing was working. On my way to the grocery store, I thought I'd try to use up the sauce...so pizza?

Well, my initial plan was to use one of this pre-done crusts that my store has. BUT!!! They actually had packages of fresh dough! Wahoo.

So Pizza for dinner!

Stretched out dough, on a pan dusted with cornmeal, so I can slide the pie onto my baking stone in the oven.

Sauced and sprinkled with some parmigiano reggiano!

Pepperonis and roasted bell peppers.

Cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.

Finished!!!! About 16 minutes in a 450 degree oven. This was a very satisfying. The crust was great. The toppiings were complementary and the leftover sauce worked great. A little salt would have elevated this to near perfection, as far as I'm concerned.
