This is a healthy recipe that I modified from a Pampered Chef recipe from long ago. I only took one photo.  This is the pizza going in the oven. I forgot to take an “after” picture!  So sorry.

This is a really tasty substitute for regular pizza that is usually laden with grease and heavy meats.  I hope you enjoy it!  Vegetarians should love it, but so do my meat-eaters!

Indredients
1 package of refrigerated pizza crust
flour
1/2 cup Canola Mayonnaise
1/2 package of ranch salad dressing mix (I always use Hidden Valley brand)
3 garlic cloves, pressed
2 cups shredded, low-fat mozarella cheese
1 cup broccoli, chopped fine
1 red bell pepper, chopped fine
5 baby carrotts, chopped fine
1/2 small can of ripe olives, sliced
Parmesan cheese to taste

Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2.  Unroll the pizza dough onto a lightly floured pizza stone.  Shape into a circle using a rolling pin, adding flour as needed to keep it from sticking.  Press the edges of the circle a little thicker to make the crust.
3.  Combine Canola Mayonnaise, pressed garlic, and ranch dressing mix in a bowl until creamy.  Spread mixture evenly over crust to within 1/4 inch of edge.
4.  Sprinkle chopped/sliced vegetables evenly around the pizza dough:  brocooli, red bell pepper, carrots, and olives.
5.  Top with mozarella cheese.  You may add grated parmesan if desired.
6.  Bake for 22-25 minutes until edges are golden.  Remove from oven and let it stand for about five minutes.
7.  Slice and serve!
