Pizza Dinner

Tonight, we went to Fiore's, the corner store, and picked up some of their pizza dough. See, they make a good pizza there (I've had it a number of times myself), but there's just something about creating your own.

After struggling a bit to roll out the dough into a somewhat circular shape, the wife and I took some time making a sauce from some tomato paste, tomato sauce, and fresh basil and rosemary. Then we chopped onion, mushroom, pepper, spinach, and garlic, spreading them liberally over the sauce. Finally, a layer of pepperoni followed by a pile of mozzarella cheese.

The whole thing was nearly dome-shaped, which you can't really tell from the photo because of the angle. It was practically a deep-dish pizza, although the crust doesn't come up the sides at all. In all honesty, we overdid the toppings, and some of the veggies in the middle were undercooked as a result. But it was still fun to make and even more fun to eat!
