Prep the dough and once it’s ready to bake, roll it out on a well floured surface. I used a pizza stone for this recipe, so I built my pizza on a piece of floured parchment paper. That means I could slide the pizza peel under the paper, and transfer the pizza (paper and all) to the stone!

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Rub the dough with olive oil then cover it in the tomato sauce. Sprinkle on the garlic. Add on half of the cheese (provolone, mozz + parmesan), then cover the pizza evenly with the bacon, mushrooms and pepperoni. Top it with the remaining mozzarella and provolone cheese.

Bake the pizza for 20 to 25 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly. Remove the pizza and let it cool slightly before covering it in the fresh basil and parmesan and serving.

If you’d like to add the spinach to the pizza, sauté it until just wilted in the bacon grease or olive oil. Place it on the pizza before your bacon, mushrooms and pepperoni!
