From Cafe del Rey: Mediterranean Pizza

From a famous restaurant - Pizza dough, tomato sauce and basil pesto - 3 recipes.

From Denny: Ever tried making your own pizza dough? It's easy and fun and the flavor is awesome compared to most commercial pizzas. Besides, you can spice it up however you like. At our house we always drizzle some extra virgin olive oil or clarified butter on top along with garlic powder and specialty chili powders from New Mexico.

This restaurant pizza is famous for its light crust and bright sauce. This recipe makes two pies to enjoy. They use the herb marjoram like we do. If you haven't tried this delightfully fragrant herb you will love it. It tastes sweet and combines well with tomato to help balance the sour taste without adding sugar to the sauce.

Café del Rey shares the recipes for the yeast pizza dough, their tomato sauce, and their basil pesto. What a recipe bonanza! In case you are traveling their way any time soon I've included links to their restaurant site. Check out their blog too as they list events and new menu choices.
