The Double Crust Pizza Method

This is not the recipe for a pizza by itself, but rather a variant on the traditional make-your-own-pizza (MYOP) crust at the station. Origins of the double crust method have been disputed by senior members of Georgetown's ultimate frisbee team; nevertheless, after employing the method, one testimonial states: "This is the only way to eat MYOP, I've never gone back." You can use the double crust method to enhance any pizza, and many self-proclaimed MYOP pioneers consider the double crust method essential to their creations.

Ingredients:
2 MYOP crusts
Shredded cheese

Directions:
Put the first pizza crust on a wire baking rack provided at the MYOP station. Top the first crust with a thin layer of cheese all the way to the edge (this is important, as too much/poorly distributed cheese will cause uneven melting when it is baked). If you feel so inclined, head over to the regular pizza area and add in any of the toppings, namely Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, or maybe even garlic powder to add some extra flavor. Place the second pizza crust atop the first, and proceed to create a pizza on the surface of the second crust.

  1. A variation for the light of appetite:

    1 MYOP crust
    Shredded Cheese

    Top one half of crust with cheese as described. Fold in half. Use the new top half (formerly the underside) as the base for your pizza.

    Especially good in conjunction with other foods.

  2. Stay tuned for a version of this turned into a possible quesadilla, to be explored in the coming week.
