Ingredients




Pizza dough, enough for a large pizza

3/4 cup ranch dressing, divided
1/2 teaspoon dill (dried)
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
6 ounces frozen cooked salad shrimp, thawed
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (I used turkey bacon)
1/2 cup chopped grape tomatoes

Preparation

1 Heat oven to 350°F. 2 Fit dough onto a pizza pan sprayed with cooking oil and bake for 7 minutes. 3 While it’s baking, stir the dill into the dressing. 4 Remove the crust and set oven temperature to 450 degrees. 5 Spread ½ cup dressing over the crust, then sprinkle the mozzarella over it. 6 No need to wait until the oven has preheated, just pop it in for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. 7 While it’s baking, mix the shrimp with olive oil and garlic until coated. 8 Remove pizza from oven & top evenly with shrimp, bacon and tomato, then drizzle the remaining dressing over everything. 9 Return to oven; bake an additional 5-7 minutes or until shrimp is thoroughly heated. 10 Cut & serve warm.

About


I was scrolling through my blog and came to realize out of the last 12 postings, only two recipes have been for non-sweets.  Sweets are my forte, but I figured a dinner recipe was long over-due, and have I got a doozy for you!
A couple MySpace friends inspired this one.  Through MySpace, I’m connected to a great network of women who love to cook and are so supportive and fun.  Kim, the one responsible for hooking me up with most of my foodie friends, posted a recipe for Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza yesterday that had me drooling over my keyboard.  I’d been wanting to make a pizza that my friend Suzie posted on her blog that had shrimp on it, so I decided to meld the two recipes into one.  So here it is, the final masterpiece.  And it would be just as good with chicken, which I plan to make next.
