Homemade Pizza

Tony and I LOVE pizza.  We would eat it everyday if we could.  One day we were shopping at Whole Foods, my favorite grocery store for many reasons, and discovered their pizza and fell in love with it, but I realized that if I could buy the pizza dough I could make it myself and make it a lot healthier for us.  Here is our version of our favorite pizza.  (We buy all of our ingredients from Whole Foods because I like to use hormone free, nitrate free, organic products, but you can choose to use whatever ingredients you would like).  Their pizza dough is the best!

Ingredients:(Toppings can be altered to your preference)
One ball of fresh or frozen pizza dough from Whole Foods
Dusting of flour
One can of Muir Glen Organic Pizza Sauce
One ball of FRESH mozzarella cheese (I can't stress the importance of fresh, it is the best)
One package of proscuitto
Fresh spinach
Fresh basil
Pizza Pan

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Remove pizza dough from the refrigerator.  If you buy it fresh from them they always put flour on it, but if yours does not then dust the ball of dough with flour to make it not sticky.  Roll the dough out and place it on a pizza pan sprayed with non-stick spray. 

Then, open the can of pizza sauce and spread maybe half of the can on the dough.  I don't like to use too much sauce or the dough becomes soggy. 

Then, cut the fresh mozzarella and lay it all over the pizza.  Use as much or as little as you want.

Next, tear apart the proscuitto and scatter it around the pizza as well.  Continue to add whatever ingredients you would like.  I usually only put the vegetables on my quarter of the pizza that Lilly and I eat:)

 Save the fresh basil until after the pizza is cooked.  Place pizza in the oven and cook for about 20 minutes, or until cheese and edges of the crust are lightly golden.  After pizza is cooked allow to cool and then sprinkle with fresh basil. 

I love this pizza as it is all natural, organic, and hormone free.  I love seeing Lilly eat things that are freshly made and so good for her.  I hope that you enjoy!
