CHICAGO DEEP DISH PIZZA 
Dough:

1 pkg. yeast
1 tsp. sugar
1 c. warm water
2 1/2 c. flour
pinch salt
3 tbsp. olive oil

Dissolve yeast and sugar in the warm water. Add flour and salt all at once, mix and then knead into a ball. Drizzle olive oil on dough ball and work into dough. Cover and let double in size.

This makes one pie. If you want to make more pies, simply double the recipe as needed.

Sauce:

1 bulb. roasted garlic
1 (14 1/2 oz.) can diced tomatoes
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste
1/2 tsp. sugar
pinch oregano
pinch basil
pinch salt
pinch pepper

Roast garlic for 1 hour in oven at 325°F. Add all sauce ingredients to a blender with roasted garlic to taste. Blend until desired consistency. This makes enough sauce for two pies.

Preheat oven to 450°F. Grease pan with butter and spread dough. Add sauce to taste and top with cheese.

Bake on middle rack for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
