Two Pizzas are Better than One.

Whether you are using a gluten-free dough, or a dairy-free "cheese" pizza is a versatile dish. The oven is hot. You can cook two pizzas in about the same time as one pizza and people like different toppings on their pizzas. If you have been reading along, you know that sometimes I will cook a pizza with different toppings on different parts of the pizza based on individual preferences. That won't work if one of the toppings is an allergen.

Preheat oven to 450 or higher.

Pizza #1

Start with a thin dough on parchment paper lining a half sheet pan. Sprinkle dough with Penzey's Italian Herb Mix (Turkish oregano, basil, marjoram, thyme, and cracked rosemary) and cover with a thin layer of tomato or marinara sauce. Mozzarella next and then some grated Irish Dubliner cheese.



Toppings for this pizza are browned ground pork with garlic, shallots and mushrooms sautéed in EVOO and seasoned with shallot salt.



Pizza #2

Start with a thin dough on parchment paper lining a half sheet pan. Sprinkle dough with Penzey's Italian Herb Mix (Turkish oregano, basil, marjoram, thyme, and cracked rosemary) and cover with a thin layer of tomato or marinara sauce. Mozzarella next and then some grated Irish Dubliner cheese.



Toppings for this pizza are more mozzarella and more grated Irish Dubliner cheese.

Ten minutes or so in the hot oven and they are both done. Let them rest for a minute or so before cutting and it is dinner time.
