"This is among my husband's favorite dinners! The flavors compliment each other so well and it is so easy! I use frozen bread dough to speed the process. Set out dough before you leave for work and you are ready to go by the time you get home!"

Original Recipe Yield 1 pizza
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf frozen white bread dough, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 sprig fresh basil, chopped
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
  • 3/4 cup Italian tomato sauce
  • 4 ounces crumbled goat cheese
  • 2 sprigs fresh basil, chopped

Directions

  1. Allow dough to rise in a covered bowl until doubled in bulk.
  2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  3. Roll the dough on a floured surface into a 15-inch circle. Roll the edges towards the center to form a crust, leaving a 12-inch circle. Brush the entire crust generously with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, 1 sprig of chopped basil, and rosemary. Bake in preheated oven until the crust begins to turn golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
  4. Spread the crust with tomato sauce. Sprinkle with 2 sprigs of chopped basil and goat cheese. Bake in preheated oven until the crust is brown, and the pizza has heated through, about 8 more minutes.
