mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining flavor.

Italian sausage

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground beef

Ground turkey is leaner, while ground beef is often more affordable.

pizza dough

🥗Healthier: whole wheat dough

💰Cheaper: store-bought dough

Whole wheat dough adds fiber, while store-bought saves time.

pizza sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato sauce

💰Cheaper: canned tomato sauce

Homemade sauce can be healthier, while canned is budget-friendly.

Prepare the pizza dough and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) with a pizza stone inside if available.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit a pizza pan.

Transfer the rolled dough to the greased pizza pan, pressing it into the edges.

Sprinkle cornmeal on the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking.

Spread a layer of pizza sauce evenly over the dough.

Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce, covering it well.

Add toppings such as pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and black olives as desired.

Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top for added flavor.

Drizzle a little olive oil over the pizza for richness.

Season with basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Serve hot and enjoy your Chicago thin-crust pizza.
