Recipe Instructions

Combine bread mix and yeast in a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups warm water and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Mix with a spoon to form a soft dough. Knead gently for one minute; shape into a ball. Cover with plastic, and let rise for 1 hour or until dough is doubled in size.

While dough is rising, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic 30 seconds, until starting to color. Add broccoli and cook 2 minutes, until heated through. Remove from heat; stir in ricotta cheese.

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Shape pizza dough into a 14-inch round and transfer to a wire mesh pizza screen or a pizza pan with holes. Spread broccoli mixture over dough leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle with oregano and remaining tablespoon of oil.

Bake pizza 20 to 22 minutes, or until puffed and nicely browned.
