Ingredients

•	White Cheddar Pizza

•	6 lb. SYSCO Classic pizza dough, thawed

•	2 tbsp. SYSCO Brand rubbed sage

•	3 lb. SYSCO Imperial mild white cheddar cheese, shredded

•	12 oz. SYSCO Classic smoked bacon, coarsely crumbled

•	1 lb. 2 oz. SYSCO Classic walnut pieces, toasted

•	6 oz. SYSCO Natural fresh parsley

Preparation

1.	Divide dough into twelve 8-ounce pieces. Knead the sage into each dough ball, allotting 1/2 teaspoon of the herb for each piece of dough. Roll out into 10-inch rounds.

2.	For each pizza, place dough round directly onto heated pizza stone or sheet pan. Cover dough surface with 4 ounces cheese, 1 ounce bacon and 1-1/2 ounces walnuts. Bake at 500°F for 7 to 10 minutes until dough is baked. Sprinkle topping with 1/2 ounce parsley leaves. Cut 4 wedges; serve hot.

3.	NOTE: If you're starting with formed pizza crusts rather than dough, simply sprinkle the sage on with the cheese, bacon and walnuts.
