Homemade Pizza

There's nothing better than homemade pizza! With dough made from whole wheat flour and toppings like fresh cherry tomatoes, spinach, turkey pepperoni and part-skim mozzarella cheese, this delicious pie is good for you, too! Recipe courtesy of Hylton & Kara.



Ingredients

1 cup warm water (100 degrees)

1 pinch sugar

1 package active dry yeast (or 2 1/4 tsp.)

2 tsp. salt

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup whole wheat flour

2 tbsp. olive oil

Toppings (cherry tomatoes, shredded mozzarella cheese, turkey pepperoni, spinach, salt & pepper, olive oil)

Directions

Put warm water, sugar and yeast in a bowl in a warm place for 10 minutes.

In another bowl, mix flours and salt. Add water mixture to flour mixture and add oil. Kneed until not sticky. Roll into a ball and put in a bowl coated with oil. Cover with a towel and let stand until dough doubles in size (about an hour).

Kneed dough again and split in half (for 2 pizzas).

Layer (in order):

- sliced cherry tomatoes (Your sauce! You'll need about one container per pizza)

- shredded mozzarella cheese

- turkey pepperoni

- spinach (Pile it on! Spinach is all water and wilts down to almost nothing)

- salt & pepper (to taste)

- drizze of olive oil

Bake in a 500 degree oven (yes, 500 degrees) for 16 to 18 minutes.

Great for date night or entertaining guests! Enjoy :)
