Greek Pizza

There are a lot of different ways of making Greek pizza so this is just one of my recipes. This recipe doesn’t call for any red sauce giving it a really unique flavor. I always use homemade pizza dough- I posted the recipe for this earlier- but please note that with the amount of pizza dough in the recipe you can make 3 to 4 thin crust pizzas. The recipe below is for 1 10×15 inch pizza. As with any pizza, measurements don’t have to be exact. Feel free to add as much (or as little) of any topping that you like because the amounts written below are just guidelines.
