recipe: black friday pizza

more exciting than thanksgiving food is thanksgiving leftovers pizza. this year was the 2nd annual... mmm yeah. the title itself is pretty self-explanatory, so might as well just get into it:

the 2011

ingredients list:
- 1 recipe or store-bought pizza dough (i used trader joes wheat...see note below)
- 1 cup gravy
- 1.5 cups shredded mozz
- leftover turkey
- leftover mashed potatoes
- leftover stuffing
- leftover cranberry
- 1 cup baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic
- whatever else leftovers you want
- parsley
- salt & pepper to taste

to make: preheat the oven (with pizza stone in the oven also) to 450 degrees. while the oven heats, sautee mushrooms and garlic until golden & yum, then set aside. roll out pizza dough on lightly floured surface. lightly flour the hot pizza stone, then carefully transfer the dough to the stone. spread gravy onto the dough, then pile on first some cheese, the turkey, blobs of all the taters, stuffing & veggies, more cheese, and the seasonings. bake in preheated oven for about 14-16 minutes, then let it rest for a few minutes before cooking.

post t-day pizza is just the tits. the only complaint is the trader joes wheat pizza dough... it sucks. doesn't rise. as long as you don't make that mistake, this is the best pizza ever. we usually do half with stuffing, half without since i hate stuffing. last year we added spinach since i had it... but it's pretty much a garbage pizza with whatever you want on it. i love it, and i can't wait until 364 days from now till the next one. i'm sure there are more t-day leftover recipes to come... i have too much stuff to handle :o0 rating 8.5 ********~.
