Vegetarian Pizza and a Light Wheat Pizza Crust

Pizza has always been a favorite weekend food in our house.  I am sure it is in many households!

For years, I have had a recipe that I have sworn on.  It makes enough dough for 2 pizzas and that is just right for my family.

Since we are eating more healthy this year, I thought I would subsitute some of the white flour with wheat flour that I had ground using my Wonder Mill!

I think I have found a new favorite!  I know the crust was more healthy for all of us, and it still had a light taste to it.

We sauted a few veggies that were in the refrigerator, added some cheese and ended up with a perfect pizza!

About Cynthia @ FeedingBig

I have always loved cooking, but for many years the recipes were of the quick and easy type. I homeschooled my daughter and we were always on the run! Now, she is in college and I have more time to learn new techniques and new recipes. Working with only whole foods and cooking/baking from scratch is my goal. When I am not in the kitchen, you can find me in my studio working on a sewing or quilting project! Checkout my blog Feeding Big.
