Publix Dough

[RoadPizza]

I'm visiting friends in Cumming, GA.  Since tonight's our last night in Georgia (tomorrow, we fly to NYC to visit more friends), I made pizza at their house.  We bought 3 dough balls at the local Publix.  I made some sauce a couple of days ago, using a large can of whole peeled tomatoes, a small bottle of pasta sauce, fresh basil, minced garlic, parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and olive oil.  I used fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, parmesan cheese, and some olive oil as my toppings and cooked it on a pizza stone in a 500F oven.

The second and third pizzas came out much better than the first.

Thanks, Norma.  It's been a while since I made pizzas in a home kitchen (let alone one that wasn't my own).  I used their cutting board as a pizza peel.  You may have noticed that with one pie, I placed the cheese under the sauce.  It kept the sauce moist on top.

RoadPizza,

That was a great idea to use the cutting board as a pizza peel.    You sure are inventive.
