This recipe comes from my mom. It is killer good. In fact, it is the best going appetizer around. I could make it a meal in itself!!! She has made it with both pizza dough and bread dough. I prefer the pizza dough. You can find it right in the grocery store or you can pick it up from your local pizzeria! Either way, you won;t be disappointed. And yes, you can leave off the olives. I know many dislike them but I LOVE them!!!
