Wegmans, Part II

I made my pizza tonight.  It was different than the one I had at Wegmans, but it was still pizza inspired from my trip and lunch at Wegmans.

I used the Wegmans pizza dough, shredded mozzarella cheese, pizza sauce and pepperoni (not shown in the picture).  Then I added some cherry tomatoes and jalapenos from my garden along with a green pepper (also from Wegmans-straight from the farms) and some smoked fresh mozzarella.  It turned out really good.  Next time I should probably use a little bit less cheese, but I really love cheese. 

When I make my pizza, I spread out the dough and then put it in the oven at 375 for about 15 minutes.  Then I take it out and put on all the toppings.  I have found it is best to put all the veggie things under the cheese.  This is where I have to admit, I am not a fan of veggies, so the peppers go on only half the pizza for my husband.  I did put tomatoes on the entire pizza... so I did get at least some veggies.  I bet mom will be proud!  Once everything is on, the pizza goes back into the oven at the same temperature for around 15 more minutes.  I wait until the cheese is all bubbly and starting to get just a hint of a brownish color in some spots.  Take the pizza out and let it sit, just so that when it's cut, the cheese doesn't all ooze off. 

The final product:

  2. Hi Aimee! Thank you for following! It's amazing how easy pizza is to make, and you can then control all of the toppings. I like the premade dough from Wegmans, but it is also really easy to make pizza dough. It just takes a while since you have to wait for it to rise.
