Take a break from the holiday rush with a delicious Mushroom White Pizza
This time of year is so busy. Is it just me, or did the holiday rush start early this year? Everyone is out and about in a shopping frenzy, and it’s just December 1st!
Let’s take a break from the frantic pace of life with something hot, satisfying and super-yummy. Who doesn’t love garlic-butter sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions and two kinds of cheese on a toasty crust. Noooobody!
You don’t have to use flatbread or pitas, but they really are a time-saver. You can also use defrosted pizza dough from the store or if you have the time, make your own fresh. Shape dough into one large or two small rounds, proceed with steps 2 and 3 below, bake pizza on middle rack in a 500ºF oven for 12-14 minutes until golden brown.

This is amazing. So simply and so delicious! I used homemade dough & stretched it really thin.
