Artichoke Pizza

1 can (14 oz) artichokes, drained and chopped
1 can (2.25 oz) sliced olives, drained
1/2 (2 oz) grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 lemon
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 package (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza crust
1 small tomatoe, thinly sliced or diced (whatever you prefer)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning mix

1.  Preheat oven to 425F.  Chop artichokes.  Zest lemon to measure 1 teaspoon zest; finely chop zest.  In a small bowl combine artichokes, olives, 1/4 cup of cheese, lemon zest, mayonnaise, and garlic; mix well.

2.  Unroll pizza dough on pizza pan/stone shaping it into a circle.  Using a lightly floured roller, roll dough to the edge of the pan.  Spread artichoke mixture evenly over crust to within 1/2 inch of edge.  Thinly slice tomatoe or dice it.  Arrange tomato pieces over pizza; sprinkle with seasoning mix and remaining cheese. 

3.  Bake 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown.  Remove from oven; let stand for 10 minutes.

I prefer to use a thin pizza crust.  This is one of my very favorite things to have for dinner.  It is very easy and quick to make and is yummy!
