We’re bringing back a weekly pizza night over here at WGC and today it comes in the form of Three Cheese Pizza.

This isn’t just any Three Cheese Pizza… it’s loaded with mozzarella, goat cheese and burrata. It’s the trifecta of cheeses on a pizza plus 2 kinds of pizza sauce. BRING IT ON.

Let’s break this down shall we. Typically I do a pizza with a ½ lb of crust… today we’re getting crazy and going with the full quantity of pizza dough. Delallo’s pizza dough kit is my go to. Everything is in one little package and you just add liquid. It’s simple, uber dependable and I LOVE it. It makes an excellent crust and it’s a great way to have an authentic dough on hand at all times. It’s also going to result in a puffier pizza which is perfect because wait until you hear what going on top.

There’s a duo of sauces on this Three Cheese Pizza pie… traditional red pizza sauce AND my basil vinaigrette. You know I keep that on hand in the fridge at all times, so it makes total sense to mix it with a pizza sauce and up the ante on the pizza game.

Once that’s all taken care of, you add mozzarella and goat cheese and bake it off. Top it with the queen of all cheeses, burrata… dust it with some red pepper flakes and finish it off with some fresh basil for garnish. Doesn’t get easier right? Plus it’s great for vegetarians. And if you want to add some prosciutto or crumbled bacon on top, be my guest!

The best Three Cheese Pizza with a basil vinaigrette sauce and ALL THE BURRATA
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Course Main Course
Cuisine Mediterranean
Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Delallo pizza dough
  • cup Delallo pizza sauce
  • cup Basil Vinaigrette
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 ounces goat cheese
  • 4 ounces burrata cheese
  • handful of fresh basil
  • red pepper flakes

Instructions
 

  • Make the pizza dough according to the package directions.
  • Pre-heat your oven to 500 degrees. Thirty minutes before cooking the pizza, put your pizza stone in the oven.
  • Stretch out your pizza dough using your hands in a circular motion, then lay it on a flat surface and flatten it out using a rolling pin. If you have a pizza peel, sprinkle some flour on it and place the stretched out dough on the peel.
  • Once your dough is flat and ready to be heated, use a spoon to spread the pizza sauce and basil vinaigrette all around the dough leaving a little bit for the crust. Top with the mozzarella and goat cheese
  • Pop your pizza peel in the oven and slide it over the stone for 12-14 minutes, until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • After the pizza is cooked, pull out the pizza and tear the burrata into pieces and place on top. Top with basil, salt, and red pepper flakes. Cut into 6-8 slices and serve immediately.

Notes

I love the shortcut of ready-to-go pizza dough and sauce. Choosing your favorite brands on these will make your pizza a homemade treat.

  1. I just found your website through a post from Molly J. Wilk and really excited about your weekly meal plan menus. I will have to put them on rotation. This pizza looks very good but I am curious how large you stretch the dough out, you don’t mention it in the recipe. Now onto perusing the rest of your meals.

  2. Hi Gaby! I have become obsessed with making your salad dressings. I have been making and storing in mason jars. How long do they stay fresh for like that?

  3. 5 stars
    Got your new book today! Can’t wait to sit down and read it but it’s on the quarantine bench till tomorrow afternoon!☹️

  4. Girl, this is heaven. I just became a fan if goat cheese so I can't wait to try along with your basil vinaigrette I live by. What pizza stone do you recommend? Thank you!

  5. So. Much. Yes. The more cheese the better is always my motto, which makes this a dream come true. Cannot wait to try it out!
