This is such a fun supper to put together as a special treat for Chanukah. It also makes a great addition to any Chanukah party.
Yield: 5 servings
Ingredients:
16 oz. pizza dough (ready-made, or make your favorite recipe)
5 teaspoons pizza sauce
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ cup pizza spice (optional)
1½ cups shredded cheese
1 box white mushrooms
½ red pepper, sliced
Directions:
Sprinkle pizza spice over dough. Drizzle with olive oil and knead it in (this adds flavor). Allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Cut dough into 3 pieces and roll them into strings. Flatten out each string with a rolling pin.
Spread some sauce on the center of each string and top with cheese and vegetables. Close strings up and braid them together.
Place into a loaf pan and drizzle some olive oil on top.
Bake at 375°F for 35 minutes.
Sprinkle some cheese on top and drizzle with some more sauce.
Bake for an additional 10 minutes.
