Enjoy a classic Margherita pizza with fresh mozzarella, basil, tomatoes, and Italian flavors.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pouch (6.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ Pizza Crust Mix
  • 4 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, well drained
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) fire roasted diced tomatoes, drained
  • Fresh cracked pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup thin strips fresh basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and grease a cookie sheet or pizza pan. Prepare the pizza crust according to the instructions on the pouch. Press the dough into a 12-inch circle on the prepared sheet or pan, using floured fingers. Make sure to press the dough from the center towards the edges, leaving the edges slightly thicker than the center.
  • Slice the mozzarella into 1/4-inch pieces. Layer the cheese onto the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with tomatoes and sprinkle with salt, pepper, 2 tablespoons of basil, and oregano. Finish by drizzling with oil.
  • Bake until the crust is a beautiful golden brown and the cheese is perfectly melted. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of basil.
