Pepperoni, Mushroom, and Caramelized Onion Pizza


Let me just say that I forgot to take an "After" picture of my hot from the oven pizza.  I was absolutely starving since my pizza was the last one out of 4 that I made!

My favorite pizza toppings are pepperoni and mushrooms.  Now that we are cooking individual pizzas at home, I don't have to compromise with anybody else.  I made this pizza the other night while my husband had a philly cheese steak pizza and my kids had a pepperoni and a plain cheese pizza.  It was delicious!

This makes a large 12 inch pizza.  The one pictured above is much smaller so I used half the ingredients to make an individual serving. 

Ingredients:

Italian Pizza Crust
1/2 cup marinara
2 T olive oil
8 oz. mushrooms, sliced
1 white onion, sliced
pepperoni slices
2 cups mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Saute mushrooms in 1 T olive oil until slightly tender.  Remove from pan and set aside.  Add another 1 T olive oil and mushrooms to the pan and cook until carmelized, about 15 minutes.  Remove from the heat and add to the mushrooms. 

Prepare pizza crust as directed.  Spread marinara sauce over dough.  Layer on the mushroom and onion mixture, mozzarella cheese, and then pepperoni slices.

Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.  Enjoy!
