Weird Pizzas but still yummy!

Last month, I made a few out-of-the-ordinary pizzas and I thought I'd share them with you along with the pizza dough recipe that is from Maria not me and it comes out perfect every time I make it! So I had to share it but Maria gets the credit! :)

This first pizza had grilled green onions and asparagus, sun-dried tomatoes with ricotta cheese. Very good and tasty. I love asparagus! The second one (no photo) had goat cheese, balsamic vinegar and caramelized onions. Different but still good and fun to try. Caramelizing onions is not like sauteing onions. I sliced five, yes five!, onions and put them in a medium heat pan with butter and a little oil. On medium heat, they just kept braking down and caramelizing but it does take long time. I also add a tablespoon of brown sugar for every onion. Anyway, it was tasty and interesting.

Okay, here's Maria's Bread sticks recipe that I use for a thick pizza crust in a cookie sheet.

Maria's Bread Stick

2 T. sugar

1/2 t. salt

3 - 3 1/2 c. flour

Place on cookie sheet and roll in butter. Sprinkle with garlic and Parmesan. Let raise for 15-20 minutes and bake for 20 minutes.
