Ingredients

  • 1 pound pizza dough, room temperature (canned or frozen)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F. Divide pizza dough into 2 balls. On a lightly floured surface, press each ball into a 10-inch circle. Place dough on a rimmed baking sheet. Combine oil and garlic in small bowl. Brush pizza dough with oil mixture. Top with half the mozzarella, tomatoes, mushrooms, red onions and olives, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
