1/4 cup olive oil
2 red bell peppers, cut into 1/4-inch strips
1/2 cup (4.5-oz jar) sliced mushrooms, drained
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil or 1 tablespoon dried basil leaves
1 jar (6 oz) marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1 can (2 1/4 oz) sliced ripe olives, drained
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 oz)

Instructions

If using classic crust: Heat oven to 425 °F. Spray or grease 13 x 9-inch (3-quart) baking dish or 12-inch pizza pan. Unroll dough in pan. Starting at center, press out dough to edge of pan.

In food processor bowl with metal blade or blender, place garlic. Cover; process 10 to 15 seconds or until finely chopped. With food processor or blender running, add 3 tablespoons of the oil through feed tube or opening in top of blender lid. Process 20 to 30 seconds or just until blended. Spread garlic mixture over dough.
In 8-inch skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat until hot; cook and stir bell peppers in oil 3 to 5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Layer peppers, mushrooms, basil, artichokes and olives over garlic mixture; top with cheeses.
Bake classic crust 14 to 18 minutes, thin crust 12 to 15 minutes, or until crust is golden brown around edges and cheese is melted. Cut into 8 servings.
