Rick’s Favorite Pizza piles on five cheeses - mozzarella, muenster, provolone, cheddar, and parmesan - loaded with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, and green peppers.

1 hrsThe defining move here is the five-cheese blend.
Mozzarella, muenster, provolone, cheddar, and parmesan all get shredded and mixed together before going on the crust. That combination melts into something richer and more complex than mozzarella alone ever could.
The sausage gets boiled in water first, then drained and rinsed - this pulls out most of the fat and keeps the pizza from going greasy under all that cheese. Classic toppings finish it out: pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, onion.
Rick clearly knows what he’s doing.
