Ingredients

  • 3 cups Original Bisquick™ mix
  • 2/3 cup very hot water
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 smoked string cheese pieces (from 4- or 8-oz package), cut lengthwise in half
  • 1/4 cup Italian-style tomato paste
  • 1 small onion, cut lengthwise in half, then cut crosswise into thin slices
  • 1/2 medium bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 can (4 oz) mushroom pieces and stems, drained
  • 1/2 package (3.5-oz size) sliced pepperoni
  • 1 can (2 1/4 oz) sliced ripe olives, drained, if desired
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 oz)

Steps

  • 1
    In large bowl, stir Bisquick mix, water and oil until soft dough forms; beat vigorously 20 strokes. Let stand 8 minutes.
  • 2
    Move oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 450°F. Grease 12-inch pizza pan with shortening or cooking spray. Press dough on bottom and 1 inch over side of pizza pan. Place string cheese along edge of dough. Fold 1 inch edge of dough over and around cheese; press to seal. Bake 7 minutes.
  • 3
    Spread tomato paste over crust. Top with onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, pepperoni and olives. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Short on time? Omit the string cheese, and press the dough just on the bottom of the pizza pan, not over the side.
  • tip 2
    Serve this special pizza just like pizzerias do by providing containers of grated Parmesan cheese and crushed red pepper flakes for sprinkling on pizza as desired.
