ingredients
- 16 ounces pizza dough, ball (1 pound)
- 1⁄2 cup pizza sauce
- 4 fresh garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 1⁄2 cups queso fresco, crumbled
- 1⁄2 cup chorizo sausage, cooked and crumbled
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 1 large red chili, thinly sliced
- 1⁄4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
directions
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
- Roll the pizza dough on a floured surface and place on a cookie sheet.
- Spread the pizza sauce over top. Cover with a sprinkling of garlic, then a 1/2 cup of queso fresco. Top with chorizo and green onion, then cover with the remaining cheese and chili slices. Cook until the crust is golden brown (10 to 12 minutes). Garnish with cilantro.
- Note: I prefer my crust prebaked for a crispier crumb. May need to reduce final cook time.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
