Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400°F for dark or nonstick pan (425°F for all other pans). Spray 15x10-inch pan with sides with cooking spray.

In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Stir in onion to coat with oil. Cook uncovered 10 minutes, stirring every 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook 20 minutes longer, stirring well every 5 minutes; until onions are golden brown (onions will shrink during cooking). Set aside.

Unroll dough in pan; starting at center, press dough into 15x10-inch rectangle. Bake about 8 minutes or until light brown.

Spread pizza sauce over crust. Top with roast beef, onion, cheese and bell pepper.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.

Cook's note:

Love this pizza as it is written, but its better with alfredo sauce or a nice garlic paste mixed with olive oil and butter Or, maybe a Parmesan cheese sauce.
