... exchanging refined white flour for more nutritious whole wheat crust (it's a yeast crust that can be assembled and baked into a pizza immediately, no rise time necessary!)
The recipe makes one large pizza, but I prefer to form the dough into two or four smaller pizzas.

And to cut the cholesterol, I've spread it with pesto instead of a layer of cheese, then
fresh sliced tomatoes topped with a small slice of fresh mozzarella.

It bakes in minutes; hot from the oven a fresh basil leaf on each slice of cheese makes the perfect finishing touch.

If you try this healthier pizza, I hope you enjoy it.

I love this recipe, the idea of pesto instead of cheese sounds GREAT!!! THANKS!!! for the recipe. Geri

ReplyDeleteMari, I can't resist asking if you went to see Julia and Julie today! And asking your other readers as well. I loved it! I'd read both books -- Julia's autobiography is just plain wonderful, and Nora Ephron did a great job of telling Julia and Paul's story on film. If you haven't seen it yet, don't wait! It's fabulous.
ReplyDeleteThat is my favorite kind of pizza, and I love how you made it healthier!
