For whenever you want pizza, but don’t have time or the energy to make sauce or crust. It’s still tastes great!

Lazy Pizza

Cooking time: 30 minutes.

4 servings

• 1 loaf of nice bread. In this recipe I use garlic bread
• 1 jar tomato sauce
• 1/4 cup minced garlic
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 1 can sliced olives
• 1 can sliced mushrooms
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (minimum, I like cheese)
• Half jar sundried tomatoes
• Salt
• Ground black pepper

The key ingredients in this recipe are: The bread, the sauce, and the cheese. Everything else in this is toppings.

Step 1: bake your bread.

Note, this is only necessary if using a “take and bake”. Skip if using regular bread. You want your bread to have a large surface for toppings.

Step 2: Toppings

This recipe uses (canned) garlic, and fresh rosemary, so you want to cook them first.

• 

• 

• 

Remove the rosemary leaves by pinching, and slide fingers down. Discard stems.

• 

• 

• 

Add the garlic, olive oil, and rosemary to a small pan. Finish with pinch of salt and a couple grinds black pepper. Simmer on low for 7 minutes. The last photo is what to look for. Drain the cooking oil, and set aside. This is now an infused oil.

Step 3: Assemble

Cut bread in half (if using unsliced bread). Spread tomato sauce in an even layer.

• 

• 

• 

Add the cooked garlic and rosemary on top of the sauce layer. Spread evenly. I add this now to ensure consistent flavor.

Add half the cheese, then one at a time layer the olives, mushrooms, and sundried tomatoes.

Add the rest of the cheese.

Step 4: bake at 375 F for 25 minutes

Or until the internal temperature is 165 degrees F when checked with a thermometer.

Allow to cool for 5 minutes… (The hardest part)
