Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions:
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, ½ cup of whole wheat flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of garlic salt. Stir to combine.
  2. In a separate bowl, dissolve 2 envelopes of Fleischmann's RapidRise Yeast in ½ cup of very warm milk (120 to 130°F). Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
  3. Add the yeast mixture and ¼ cup of olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm area for about 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
  5. While the dough is rising, prepare your toppings. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add 8 ounces of sliced fresh mushrooms and sauté until tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
  6. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Once the dough has risen, spread it out on a baking sheet or pizza pan. Layer on 4 ounces of crumbled feta cheese, 2 cups of packed fresh spinach leaves, sautéed mushrooms, ½ cup of chopped roasted red bell peppers, and ½ cup of chopped Kalamata olives.
  7. Sprinkle 1½ cups (6 ounces) of shredded mozzarella cheese over the top, followed by 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning.
  8. Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  9. Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. If desired, garnish with fresh basil before slicing and serving.
