Made Pepperoni, Onion and Olive Pizza


I should made pizza more often  With store-bought dough it was such an easy and tasty meal for two!  But really it's pizza so you don't actually need a recipe…just throw on it whatever you want and pop it in the oven for 15 minutes.  I found this one in…you guessed it…Cooking Light.  No matter a current issue or past from October 2011, the recipes are always so great.

1 pound refrigerated fresh pizza dough
Cooking spray
1 tbsp. yellow cornmeal
1/2 c. marinara sauce
1/2 c. thinly sliced sweet onions
2 ounces pepperoni slices
10 manzanilla olives, pitted and halved lengthwise
3/4 c. (3 oz. pre shredded reduced-fat Italian-blend cheese

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Place dough in a bowl coated with cooking spray or olive oil; let dough stand, covered for 15 minutes.  Sprinkle a baking sheet, or pizza stone if you have one, with cornmeal; roll dough into a 12-inch circle on prepared baking surface.
Spread sauce evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.  Top with onion, pepperoni, and olives; sprinkle with cheese.  Bake at 450 degrees on bottom oven rack for 17 minutes or until golden.  
 

Split it with your favorite person and a green salad!
