Has any one tried making this pizza using a bisquick crust? One of the reviewers said that the canned tomatoes made her pizza too moist and I'm wondering if this recipe would make a bisquick crust soggy?

This pizza was both delicious and beautiful to look at. I used a Trader Joe's pizza crust to save that step, but it was amazing all the same. I would definitely make this again due to how easy and delicious it was.
