Not with this recipe! Make several and freeze before cooking for a quick meal any time.

Here's what you'll need:

*Crust:
4 tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp honey
3 cups warm water (110*F)
2 tsp salt
1 TB Italian seasoning
1/4 cup olive oil
6 1/2-7 1/2 cups bread flour

Sauce:
1 large can fire roasted crushed tomatoes
1 TB Italian seasoning
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp honey


Toppings:

Whatever floats your boat - I used raw milk cheese topped with chicken, bacon, red onion, and fresh tomatoes drizzled with a bit of olive oil.

Other favorites:
Chicken, tomatoes and pineapple
Spinach, red onion and tomatoes
Beef, red onion and green bell peppers

Directions:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast, honey and water. Let sit 10 minutes.
• Stir in about 3 cups of flour along with the salt, italian seasoning, and oil.
• Turn dough out onto a clean, floured surface and knead in more flour until dough is moist but not sticky. Put back in bowl, cover with damp cloth and let rise until double; about one hour.
• Meanwhile, stir together sauce and grate cheese.
  
• Punch down and form a tight ball. Allow to relax for about 5 minutes before rolling out.
• Coat pizza pan with olive oil and sprinkle with cornmeal.
  
• Top with sauce, cheese, and goodies. :P
• Bake at 425* for 15-20 minutes.

NOTE: If using a pizza stone top and bake immediately. If not, let rolled out dough rise for about 15 minutes before topping.

*Makes 3 large pizzas.

Family fun: Make small pizzas and let everyone top their own! You can also do this for a get together.
