Ingredients
Directions
Square meal Pizza:
Reserve a small portion of dough; shape in two 10-inch ropes. Brush one side of each rope with water; lay brushed side on unbaked crust to divide in quarters. Partially bake crust. Top each square with different toppings. Bake as directed.
Tips
Each topping (below) covers an entire pizza. If dividing the pizza in four small squares, use only one-fourth topping in each portion. Bake as directed in Good-For-You Pizza.
