Dr. Seuss's The Cat in the Hat Pizza

Dr. Seuss celebrates his birthday today, March 2. This year, he turns 106 ~ wow! Parents Magazine featured a really cute recipe in their March 2010 issue to celebrate.

Hat's Off!
1. Unroll store-bought pizza dough (we used the thin variety of Pillsbury Pizza Crust) on a cookie sheet lined with a piece of parchment paper so it's about 14" long and 12" wide. Roll up botton of dough about an inch to create the brim of the hat. Use a pizza slider to cut curves in dough that match the hat. Bake crust at 425 degrees for 5 minutes. Remove from oven.

2. Alternately make 2-3/4" stripes with tomato sauce and shredded part-skin mozzarella cheese, starting with sauze. Bake for another 6 to 10 minutes, until sauce is hot and cheese is melted.

I also found some alternates to the sauce/cheese combo here and here.
