To buy
- 4 ounces fresh mozzarella
From your shelf
- 1 Rao's brick oven crust pizza, fire roasted vegetable
- 1/2 cup fire roasted vegetable bell peppers
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms
- 1/4 red onions
- 1/2 cup tomatoes
Staples
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Heat your oven to 425°F [220°C]. Slice 1 cup cremini mushrooms and 1/4 red onion into thin pieces; toss them with 1 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper in a bowl while the oven preheats.
- Place the frozen Rao's pizza directly on the oven rack. Scatter 1/2 cup fire roasted bell peppers over the sauce, then the mushroom mixture, then 1/2 cup tomatoes. Tear 4 ounces fresh mozzarella into small pieces and distribute them across the top.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and the crust is golden at the edges. Slide onto a cutting board and let it rest for 2 minutes before slicing.
Note Swap any shelf vegetables for the peppers and mushrooms, or use all roasted vegetables if you prefer. Leftover slices keep refrigerated in an airtight container for two days; reheat in a 375°F [190°C] oven for 5 minutes. Serve with a green salad or simple greens with vinaigrette on the side.
