1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon sugar

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon cooking oil
1 tablespoon cornmeal
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
For crust, mix 3/4 cup of the flour, the yeast, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add oil
and 1/2 cup warm water; 120 to 130F. Beat with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds,
scraping the bowl. Beat on high speed 3 minutes. Stir in as much of the remaining flour
as you can. Then, knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that

pan sprayed with Pam and sprinkled with the cornmeal. Build up edges slightly. Bake crust in
425F oven about 10 minutes or lightly browned. In a blender combine cottage cheese, egg,
Parmesan cheese, basil, garlic and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cover; blend till smooth. Spread over
hot crust. Cut green pepper into rings. Place atop pizza with mushrooms. Sprinkle with Mozzarella.
