deep dish pizza
This recipe was posted in the newspaper a long time ago, for Uno's pizza dough. I have made this so many times (and made it my own with toppings), and it just gets better every time! I hope you enjoy it, and make it your own! I personally like the mushrooms on top, and tend to add more onion. With a side salad, you have a fantastic dinner. You won't be able to eat more than 1-2 slices, it is fantastic and very filling!
