Veggie Pizza

I made this veggie pizza with a new pizza dough recipe.  The veggie pizza was awesome and the crust was nice and crisp.  I also loved the basil flavor of the tomato sauce.  In comparing this new pizza dough recipe to the first recipe, its definitely a bit different.  The first pizza dough recipe is more chewy and great for a thicker crust.  I really like the new pizza dough recipe because it seems better for a thin crust pizza.  Both pizza doughs are great for whatever you desire.  I hope you try this veggie pizza or make a pizza with you favorite toppings.  Enjoy!
