1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced and separated into rings |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
2 teaspoons dried basil |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
2 plum tomatoes, chopped |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
3 ounces crumbled gorgonzola or blue cheese |
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese |
1/4 cup pitted greek olives, chopped |

2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter with brown sugar. Add onions; cook for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
3. Brush dough with oil. Combine the basil, oregano and garlic powder; sprinkle over dough. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes.
4. Arrange onions and tomatoes over crusts; sprinkle with cheeses and olives. Bake 8-10 minutes longer or until golden brown. Yield: 2 pizzas (6 slices each).
