Imitation Pelly's Pizza!

Pellegrines Lounge is a bar in Altoona, that makes their very own special pizza. This is a delicious twist on regular Italian versions of pizza. And this is a great way to enjoy their pizza at home. I hope you make this and enjoy!

First preheat your oven to about 350 degrees, then retreive the following :
A pizza shell - you can make one from scratch or use a premade one
A jar of your choice of pasta sauce
Seasonings of your choice, I chose garlic powder salt and pepper
Green Peppers, Red Peppers, and Onions
Sliced Salami, I prefer to use Genoa
Sliced Provolone cheese and American cheese

First, lay your pizza shell on a pizza pan and cover with sauce. I prefer this Tomato, Garlic & Onion by Ragu but you can use whatever you like. Then spread this with whatever seasonings you would like I chose to use garlic powder pepper and Romano cheese. I chose not to use salt because the Romano is salty enough along with the Salami.

Next cover your pizza with a desired amount of peppers and onions. I chose to use both red and green because I had both on hand but you can use which ever one you want, preferably the green because they are in the original recipe.


Next add your slices of Salami, I know this recipe is a little backwards and usually the meat goes OVER the cheese, but during cooking you will see that being hidden, the salami is able to cook and not burn so quickly (since it is a greasier meat) and became very delcious and easy to eat.

Next you are finally going to add some cheese! Sliced provolone will work best but you can definately use grated.
And last, you are going to add the oddball of this pizza, the amerian cheese. You can just do one layer of this over your provolone and other ingredients and you are done!

This pizza took only about 20 minutes in my oven at 350. You are mainly looking for your cheeses to be melted and the bottom of your pizza shell to be slightly browned. Enjoy! I know I did!

The delcious, finished product.
