Preheat the oven to 400º.

Let the dough stand at room temperature for 20 minutes, or more, on a floured plate – covered with a cloth. Roll out or stretch the dough on a floured cookie sheet; brush dough lightly with the olive oil. Sprinkle most of the Shredded Italian blend Cheese on top. Top with the basil then the sun dried tomatoes, kalamata olives and garlic. Layer the beefsteak tomatoes. Crumble the goat cheese on top of everything else and more of the shredded cheese.

Bake the pizza until the crust is golden and crisp, approximately 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.

Serve with a side salad using Herb Salad Mix and a fine dressing of your choice.

TIP OF THE MONTH

If you have had a hard time slicing Pork Tenderloin or Flank try partially freezing the meat. It makes it a lot easier if the cuts are slightly firm through freezing, remember partially.

If anybody has other tips that could be useful please, by all means, POST IT... Thank you to all.
