Louise's to Real Life

This past summer my mother and I ordered pizza from Louise's for you LA area kids. She gave me the honor of choosing the toppings and we casually discovered the greatest pizza we have ever eaten. We order a Louise’s large pizza with Pepperoni, Goat Cheese, Basil, and Mushroom. Considering I’m now in Davis with no local Louise’s, I suppose I will have to recreate it myself…

Step 1: Go with Eric to nugget and buy

     

-    One container of pillsbury pizza dough

-       One can of pizza sauce

-       One bag of Sargento double pizza cheese mix

-       Thing of Basil

-       Packet of Pancetta

-        Creamy Goat Cheese (the log style kind)

-     Mushrooms of your choice

Step 2: Preheat oven to 450

Step 3: Lay out of the dough on a cookie sheet. Spread sauce according to your sauce level preferences. Evenly sprinkle the entire bag of cheese over the sauce and dough. Smoosh the pancetta slices so they’re not completely flat and place sporadically! Then chop up about 10 large leaves of the basil and sprinkle everywhere.

Step 4: Slice the mushrooms and sauté in a little olive oil and 1 tablespoon of Italian dressing till lightly crisped.

Step 5: Add the mushrooms and chunks of the goat cheese then place in oven  for 15-20 minutes. (earlier for doughey crust, later for crispier crust)

 

So not pepperoni, but pancetta instead, makes it a little more bacon-like. Finished and enjoyed pizza with Mike and Charles, now back to being lazy on this rainy day in Davis.
