Delish Homemade Pizza

Hey Friends, tonight I made this pizza that was killer. When we were growing up my mom would always make this veggie pizza that I loved. This dish is inspired by my childhood veggie pizza and penicillin. Super fast and easy dinner! This recipe is taken and adapted from my favorite cookbook called "Now Eat This" -150 of Americas favorite comfort foods all under 350 calories. by Rocco Dispirtio. One of the reasons this cookbook is so great is he takes recipes we americans like to eat, but he does them way healthier, and with whole foods. He also takes a chapter to teach you about all the best brands, and best quality foods to substitute your old unhealthy ingredients.

Delish Pizza
Dough:
1 tsp. Molasses
3/4 C. warm water
1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
1/2 tsp. salt
1 3/4 C. Whole Wheat flour (plus a little extra for rolling out dough)
Proof yeast, molasses and water for about 10 mins.
Then add the salt and the flour and knead dough for 6 mins. Set the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover with a towel. Allow to rise for 30 mins, til it doubles in size.
Sprinkle a 11x17 with cornmeal to keep dough from sticking. Roll out your dough and put it on the pan. Bake at 500 degrees for 12 mins.
Now for the Toppings:
onion
mushrooms
fresh basil
fresh tomatoes sliced thin
fresh pineapple cut into tidbits
zuchinni or yellow squash cut as thin as possible into little coins.
Turkey Pepperoni
about 2 C. shredded cheese
 Sautee the onion and mushrooms in a tiny bit of olive oil. Once crust is baked, top with marinara sauce of your choice and cheese, and then layer the other toppings. Ending with the tomatoes and pepperoni last, so they broil nicely.
Put your oven on broil and allow to bake for a few more minutes, while your watching your cheese melt. Then serve and enjoy!
On my fitness pal for the crust, cheese and marinara its 204 calories. I'd estimate 300 calories a slice with all the veggies and fruit. Play around with the toppings. Makes 8 huge slices.
