Blast from the Past Pizza Vol. 1

Once upon a time the hubs ate a pizza at a restaurant that is now closed. Then the other night I literally threw together some bruschetta to which the hubs exclaimed this is really good it tastes like this pizza I used to get, you need to make this more often. Or he said something to that effect. So I decided to turn this bruschetta into a pizza. This blast from the past pizza pays homage to Gregorio's Tre Favoloso

1 premade pizza crust
3 Tbsp oil, flavored (I used Basil)
1 C shredded Italian cheese blend
chopped white onions
chopped green onions
chopped tomatoes
Another cup of Italian cheese
Italian seasoning
Crushed red pepper

Preheat oven to 450, once preheated turn down to 425. Brush crust with oil. Top with cheese, onions, tomatoes, more cheese, Italian seasoning and crushed red pepper. Bake 10 minutes, directly on the oven rack.

It was so good, we didn't even need ranch to dip it in!

A simple kind of Pizza

Hot gooey cheese, burning the roof of your mouth sauce, and crunchy, crusty bread. Yum! It started with a pizza in fifth grade home economics. The recipe was French Bread Pizza, the ingredients were simple, bread, sauce, cheese, and meat. But that was all it took, my culinary spark was lit. I went home and wanted to give my school recipe a try. The actual ingredients were French bread probably from the local grocery store's bakery. The remaining ingredients were less than wholesome, a can of salty tomato sauce, a block of mozzarella you had to shred yourself, and greasy pre-sliced pepperoni you simply had to taste. Hopefully you managed to save enough for the pizza. And Voila, I felt just like a chef! Did it matter that the only chef I knew was Chef Boyardee? Of course not, because I could make my own food. And even got to use the oven much to my mother's disapproval (for fear I would burn the house down). I didn't care because even at that moment I was a better c...
