  • 2 11 oz. Tubes Refrigerated Bread-stick Dough
  • 1 6 oz. Package Pepperoni Slices
  • 1 8 oz. Package Fresh Mushroom Slices
  • 1 26 oz. Jar Spaghetti Sauce, your favorite
  • 8 oz. Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Directions:

1. Warm and Lightly oil your 12 inch regular Dutch Oven.
2. Cut bread-stick dough into 1-inch pieces; place in a large bowl.
3. Add pepperoni, mushrooms and spaghetti sauce.
4. Toss to combine.
5. Pour into prepared dutch oven.
6. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. – 12 coals on the bottom and 24 to 26 on the lid
7. Top with cheese and bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes or until cheese has melted.

Makes 6 servings. Snip the bread-stick dough into one inch pieces with kitchen shears then stir in the pepperoni, mushrooms and spaghetti sauce. You could easily change the ingredients by adding your favorite pizza toppings. Next time I think I’ll try it with cooked and crumbled Italian sausage. In my 12 inch oven it baked for 30 minutes with 12 coals in a ring around the bottom and 24-26 on the lid, you need to keep the oven fairly hot for the dough to bake all the way through and rise. A fun, easy way to make dutch oven pizza and you know it will be elevated to gourmet status around the campfire.
