Instructions
Step 1
Gather the ingredients.Step 2
Preheat the oven to 400 F.Step 3
Cook the onion in the olive oil until tender in a large skillet over medium heat.Step 4
Add the tomato sauce, paste, mustard, seasonings and water. Cook, stirring frequently, over low heat until thickened and blended, about 10 minutes.Step 5
If you're using the canned pizza dough , unroll it onto cookie sheets and pre-bake according to the package directions until the dough is set. Doing this makes the crust crisper and makes the pizza sturdier. It also makes the crust taste better and gives it a better texture.Step 6
Spread the sauce evenly over both of the pizza crusts and sprinkle toppings over all. Sprinkle evenly with the cheese.Step 7
Bake the pizzas at 400 F for 15 to 25 minutes or until the pizzas heated through, the crust is crisp and golden brown, and the cheese is melted and beginning to brown.
