1 cup mozzarella, shredded
1 cup medium cheddar cheese, shredded
20 slices turkey pepperoni (Recommend: Hormel)

2 cloves garlic, minced

METHOD

Preheat oven to 475 degrees, and place rack in lowest position. Prepare pizza pan brushing it with olive oil, and a light sprinkling of cornmeal.

Roll dough out on a surface slightly dusted with flour. Place dough onto prepared pizza pan; brushing it with 1 tablespoon olive oil, prick lightly with a fork, and par-bake for 5 minutes.

Remove pizza from oven and add toppings. First, brushing with remaining olive oil, sprinkle with minced garlic, two shredded cheeses, and turkey pepperoni. Return to oven and bake for 5 minutes.

Remove from oven, and while hot add the spinach leaves, tomato slices, a couple of twists of fresh ground pepper, and a light drizzle of olive oil. Return to oven and bake for 2 more minutes.- Enjoy!

Tip: For a thicker crust pizza, you will need to add more baking time.
