Reuben Pizza

Anyone who has read this blog knows I kind of have an obsession with pizza.  I have been perfecting my recipe for years much to the amusement and enjoyment of friends and family.  I will have some new pizza photos to post soon.  Here is a recipe for something I haven't tried yet but plan to.  It's unusual to say the least but could really be yummy.  Promise to report back on this when we make it.  For simplicity I will most like just use the ready made dough that I get from the Poot.  They may or may not have whole wheat dough.

1 1lb. loaf frozen whole wheat bread dough, thawed1/2 C. thousand island dressing
2 C. shredded Swiss cheese
6oz. deli sliced corned beef, cut into strips
1 C. sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
1/2 tsp. caraway seeds
1/4 C. chopped dill pickles (optional)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Grease a large pizza pan.  On a lightly floured surface, roll the bread dough out into a large circle about 14 inches across.  Transfer to the prepared pizza pan.  Build up the edges and prick the center all over with a fork so it doesn't form a dome when baking.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven or until golden.

Spread half of the salad dressing over the hot crust.  Sprinkle with half of the Swiss cheese.  Arrange corned beef over the cheese, then drizzle with the remaining salad dressing.  Top with sauerkraut and remaining Swiss cheese.  Sprinkle with caraway seed.

Bake for another 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until cheese melts and toppings are heated through.  Sprinkle with chopped pickle.  Let stand for 5 minutes until slicing.
