Veggie Pizza

Submitted by Cadylynn

"My husband and I love homemade pizza! This recipe came about because I started to make the pizza dough and realized that I didn't have any tomato sauce! Being much too lazy and tired to go to the store I improvised with low fat ranch dressing! The experimental pizza turned out amazing and we have never since used tomato sauce on our pizza!"

EXCELLENT!! Even if you use your own crust recipe, the topping suggestions are great.
