This pizza was nearly perfect. Follow my recipe for Whole Wheat Pizza Dough. The toppings really stand out on this pizza.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 pound mixed mushrooms from Hazel Dell. If you do not live in or near Boulder, CO, look for a supplier of fresh mushrooms near you. Store-bought mushrooms just aren’t the same.
- 1 green pepper
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- Feta cheese
- Swiss cheese
- fresh ground black pepper
For the topping-
Wash and slice the mushrooms and pepper. Heat a couple tablespoons of the olive oil in a pan and add the mushrooms. Let these start to cook down for a few minutes before adding the garlic and pepper slices. After 8-10 minutes, remove this from the heat and strain the mushrooms from their juices.
Spread the rest of the olive oil over the rolled-out pizza dough. Cover the pizza with the mushroom mix and start to bake it at 425 for 5-7 minutes. Remove the pizza and add the cheese. I did half feta and half swiss, but it could easily be all of one or the other cheese. Continue to bake another 5 minutes or so until the crust is done and pizza can easily come off the pizza stone. Grind some fresh black pepper and enjoy.
