My husband decided when we were creating our bridal registry that a bread machine was a necessity. I disagreed and saw no reason for it, but he wanted it, so on the registry it went. Lo and behold, one of his relatives gave it to us as a gift! Two years later, and I think four or maybe five loaves have been made. So when I saw a recipe on one of my favorite blogs for bread machine pizza dough AND it was made with whole wheat, I figured I'd give it a go.

It turned out to be pretty darn tasty! I would rate it as better than a Boboli, but not as good as pizza shop. MH said it was on par with a Digiornio, but I think it was much better than that.

I brushed some olive oil on the dough, then sprinkled with Parmesan cheese. I then used 3 cheese marinara sauce (I think it was Francesco Rinaldi) and mozzarella cheese. I then sprinkled with garlic powder and Italian seasoning then topped with canned mushrooms.

I put the other half of the dough in the freezer, so hopefully it will still be good.
