Recipe Introduction


Supermarkets sell a variety of ready-to-use pizza shells. Buy a thin-crust version—the results are crisper. To start the meal, create an antipasto from prepared ingredients.




List of Ingredients




1 packaged pizza crust (12-inch)
About 1 cup marinara sauce
1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1 ripe tomato, thinly sliced
6 to 8 imported black olives
6 fresh basil leaves
Extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste



Recipe



Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the crust on a baking sheet. Spread the sauce on the crust to within 1/2 inch of the rim. Sprinkle with the cheese. Arrange the tomato slices, olives and basil over the cheese. Drizzle lightly with olive oil; season with pepper. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until the crust is crisp and cheese is melted.
