dough , some mozarella or moozeadell and a little peporonis toasted and thrown on right after the cheese has melted and the dough is baked

buy pre-made pizza dough/bread and if you need to, cook it a little bit in the oven, then put pizza sauce(which you can get at the store) and smear it around the half-baked crust then, take cheese, and whichever other toppings you liek, and put them on top of your pizza. then, cook it it the oven until the crust is a nice golden brown and the cheese is all-the-way melted

my mother gets these little pizza dough packets from the grocery store to make the crust, and then get some spaghetti sauce, cheese, pepperoni, onions or whatever other toppings you like. follow the directions on the packet and make your crust, put it on a round baking sheet and put the sauce, and your other toppings on it...

The time-consuming part is making the crust to rise.
If you buy a frozen or pre-cooked crust it's faster.
Pizza sauce is tomato based, comes prepared in cans.
You finish it with grated mozzarrella cheese.
In between goes any meats & veggies that you like.
Then bake in 400F oven until cheese melts & bubbles.

There is no limit to your imgaination. I do prefer purchasing these light Mexican flour tortillas.

I use them to make individual pizza's.
I than use home made tomatoe sauce or stewed tomatoes from the can.
I top it with whatever I have in my house. Sometimes I top it with tuna, pineapple pieces, and Mozarella cheese
Sometimes, I just put some olive oil on the ready Pizza crust, put some thyme and basil on it, than slice a few tomatoes very thin. Top them on the pizza, than some more basil and thymne and top it with Parmesan cheese.
I preheat my oven 400 degrees fahren heit. Than put the pizza in for about 10 minutes of everything is melted.

i would buy chef boyardee pizza mix box and try that a few times to get comfortable making pizzas. you can add things to it.after i make the dough and spread the sauce i would add the cheese and then the pepporoni or mushroom or whatever. when you do homemake pizzas always put the cheese on first and then the fillings. you can sprinkle a 1/2 cup or less on top of the filling. good luck.

Store bought pizza crust doesn't even come close to a good homemade dough.

Pizza Dough
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons sugar
1 (1/4 ounce) package yeast
1 cup water
--Combine sugar, water and yeast in a measuring cup or small bowl. Combine flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour yeast mixture and oil in well and stir into dry ingredients until you have a soft dough. If dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour. Knead until smooth on a lightly floured surface. Place in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel and let rise until doubled.

Now, there are lots of delicious canned or jarred sauces to choose from and I even use them the majority of the time. But if you want an entirely from scratch pizza, make your own sauce also!

Homemade Pizza Sauce
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
8 ounces tomato sauce
6 ounces tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons basil
1/8 teaspoon pepper
--In large skillet, saute onion and garlic in oil until tender. Stir in remaining ingredients. Simmer for 30 minutes stirring occasionally.

Now directions to make the pizza. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and press dough into a 12 inch circle on a greased pizza pan. Bake for about 6 minutes or until just very lightly browned. Remove from oven and spread with desired amount of pizza sauce within 1 inch of edges. Top with 1/4-1/3 of mozzarella cheese, toppings, and then 3/4-2/3 of the cheese. Bake for another 5-10 minutes; cheese should be bubbly and outer crust should be golden.

*My favorite topping combos are:
1) Fresh tomatoes and mushrooms
2) Italian sausage, bell peppers, and onions
3) Full vegetarian-- mushrooms, olives, onions, bell peppers, and garlic
4) Hamburger, cheddar cheese

I make whole wheat pizza dough and add spices and/or honey to it. After it's risen, I roll it out and bake it for about 10 mins. Then, I add the sauce (if tomato sauce, I used commercial; if white sauce, I make it) and cheese(s). Sometimes pesto too.

Toppings are all veggies on my portion of the pizza; musts are olives, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes (regular or sun-dried). I use broccoli when I have it and peppers when I feel like it. I put pepperoni and/or other meats plus veggies on the portions for my son and husband. Then I bake again for maybe 10-15 mins...whenever it looks ready and the cheese is bubbling.

I always put garlic and hot pepper flakes on my pizza when I eat it. :)
