Last night we made my most favorite pizza in the whole world. It’s so beautiful I just want to stare at it. In fact, Lydia named it the Pretty Princess Pizza. It’s a Rachael Ray recipe called The Only Pizza You’ll Ever Want Again. And it lives up to it’s name.
Rachael makes it with chicken but I think it’s better without. And she has some crazy chef-like instructions but I’ll give you the easy version…
Ingredients:
pizza crust (I used a whole wheat Boboli because I was at Wal-Mart but a homemade one would be MUCH better.)
broccoli (slightly cooked & chopped into bite-sized pieces)
sun dried tomatoes (bite-sized pieces or strips)
ricotta cheese
garlic (1-2 cloves, chopped/minced and then cooked for a few minutes in a little bit of olive oil)
mozzarella cheese (shredded, about 1 cup)
fresh basil leaves (about 10-12)
Instructions:
1. Make or take crust out of package.
2. Layer garlic, broccoli and sun-dried tomatoes on crust according to your liking.
3. Scoop a heaping tablespoon of ricotta cheese on one side of the pizza. Repeat about 4 times. (Think the 12, 3, 6, 9 positions on a clock.)
5. Cover with mozzarella cheese.
6. Bake according to crust’s instructions.
7. Tear basil and place on top after cooking.
8. EAT & LOVE.
Isn’t that beautiful? Oh yummy. Both my kids ate it up–including the basil and the sun-dried tomatoes! But the best part? My little pizza making helper—she picked the basil out of OUR GARDEN and carefully washed it and placed it on the pizza! How cute is she?

YUM. We love homemade pizza at our house! My husband’s favorite homemade veggie pizza has corn and fried eggplant. It sounds a little strange, but it is SO good.

Mmmmm. Love the ricotta cheese idea! I wish I grew my own basil. I make my own whole wheat pizza dough — easy schmeezy. 2 cups warm water, 1 heaping teaspoon yeast, 4+ cups whole wheat and white flours (mix according to your taste). And so on. Just three ingredients. My 9-month old loves to gnaw on the finished crust.

Looks yummy!! And yes, yes, very pretty too:) M&E won’t eat basil – too lettucey for them … I don’t think either one of them have figured out how to chew & swallow that for some reason;)

Yeah, it would be too much for me too!! I would give it about a week or so after you eat it in the fridge. You can use it in so many ways toss a bit into a salad, in a sadciwnh, in soup I’m sure you’ll find ways to use it up! And if you don’t feel like getting tempeh, you can also make this pizza with some seasoned black beans or something like that. Hope you enjoy it!

I have never been able to like tofu either, and after lernaing more about nutrition I feel no need to force myself to like it. Soy has a sugar that we can’t digest, which is why it gives us gas, and manufactured tofu has been processed to take out all of the fiber as well as a lot of the vitamins and minerals.Tempeh is a fermented product, so that the sugar has been broken down, and it uses the whole bean fiber all and tastes SO much better! ask around or maybe order online?
