Ingredients:

• Pizza base
• Tomato sauce 100 ml
• Onions(big) 3
• Tomato 3
• Capsicum 3
• Chicken 125 grams
• Cheese 20 gm
• Pepper powder 1/2 tsp.
• Oil

Method:

• Boil the chicken in water with pepper and oil and after it is cooked make it into small bits.
• Cut or shred the vegetables into desired size and shape.
• Spread tomato sauce on the harder surface of pizza base. To this add onions, capsicum and tomato. Over this add the chicken pieces.
• Top this with the onions, capsicum, tomato and the grated cheese.
• Allow it to cook in a microwave/oven for 3-5 minutes.
• Variation: Chicken sausages can be used in the place of chicken.

Ingredients:

• 1 pack of whole wheat pita bread
• 1/2 cup scallops
• 1/2 lb. shrimps (peeled and divined)
• Roasted garlic cloves (as per requirement)
• 1/2 red onion sliced
• A bunch of cilantro roughly chopped
• Minced garlic
• 1 tomato thinly sliced
• Alfredo sauce ( i got lazy so mine was store-bought)
• Butter
• Parmesan cheese
• Mozzarella shredded cheese (fresh mozzarella is definitely better)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

• Pre heat oven up to 450 degrees.
• Then put the pizza stone at the lower rack of the oven and leave it to heat (to make the pizza crispier, hotter the better)
• At this moment, also make your sauce pan heated with a dallop of butter and minced garlic and let it get sautéed for few minutes
• Then put in the shrimps and scallops. Sauté until cooked.
• Again place pan back on the stove and then pour butter to sauté red onions until it’s caramelized
• Upon caramelizing, put the pan aside
• After the stones get hot, start prepping the pitas by sprinkling some olive oil on both sides of the pitas so that they wouldn’t stick to the stones.
• Then make a layer with mozzarella cheese, alfredo sauce, onions, tomatoes, shrimps and scallops, cilantro over the pizza and again topping with more mozzarella and parmesean cheese.
• After preparation, put it carefully on the stone and bake it for 6-10 min. or when the cheese start melting and the pitas turn crispy and golden.
• Serve Hot.

Ingredients:

• 1.5 cups warm water, divided
• 1 T active dry yeast
• 1 t honey
• 2 cups flour (I used all white as I had no wheat)
• 1 c whole wheat flour
• ¾ t coarse salt
• 2 t olive oil

Method:

• Stir yeast into ½ cup warm water. Add honey and let stand 5 minutes.
• Place flours in food processor fitted with a metal blade.
• Add salt and pulse. Pour in yeast mixture, remaining water, and oil. Process 1 minute until dough comes together.
• Let rest 20 minutes before rolling out.

White Pizza Sauce

• 1 cup ranch dressing
• 1 cup mayo
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese
• Mix all together and top on crust.
• I baked my crust for about 5-10 minutes then topped with white sauce, shredded chicken, mushrooms, broccoli, and cheese.

Ingredients:

• Prepare the dough by mixing together (also with the aid of a bread a machine)
• 1 and ½ cup of warm water
• 1 and ½ tea spoon of salt
• 1 and ½ tea spoon of yeast
• 3 cups of flour

Method:

• Wait about 2 hours to rise and you have your pizza dough
• Since I assume most of us do not have a wood firebrick oven in the house. The next best thing is the use of a pizza stone in a normal oven. I have my pizza stone for over 10 years and I use it to make nice crusty breads (bread does not cook well in a bread machine).
• The pizza stone will retain heat from the oven and cook the pizza fast without the need for fattening oils etc – So when baking you don’t need a greased pan. Just put the dough on the pizza stone. The crust w ill come out dry and ‘crusty’ ( The pizza stone can be used to make excellent bread as well )
• Ok use either good canned tomatoes (Just tomatoes – not any pre-prepared sauces) or fresh tomatoes if they are available – You can even mix them together – put them in a food processor and chop them.
• Put the mozzarella in the food processor so you will be able to spread it over the pizza.
• Now use the rolling pin to make a thin layer of pizza crust. What I do now, it sounds a little strange but it helps a lot, put the raw pizza (the pizza crust that you just rolled out) by itself in the oven for just 1 minute (Reason: if the crust is too soft is very difficult to add tomatoes etc without ruining it) – After 1 minute remove the pizza dough and apply the tomatoes, mozzarella and fresh basil.
• Place the pizza in the oven for about 5 / 6 minutes ’till all the mozzarella is nicely melted. Take it out of the oven and serve. What is nice about this pizza is the unexpected different authentic Italian taste – also there are no greases oils or addictives of any type ( like powder garlic so popular in the Italian American food tradition but never used in Italy – so you are not allowed to use it).
• Anyway, after you practice with a few pizzas I might even give you the permission to try it with different toppings.

Ingredients:

• (For two pizzas)
• 2 whole wheat tortillas
• 2 tbsp tomato puree (Use pesto if you have it in stock, much tastier)
• 1 large chicken sausage
• 1 cup onions, sliced
• 1 tbsp rosemary (preferably fresh, I used dried)
• 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 2 cloves of garlic, sliced
• 1 large bell pepper
• 2 green onions sliced
• 1/4 cup crumbled low fat feta
• crushed red chilies to taste
• salt to taste
• oil

Method:

• Roast the bell pepper on open flame on the stove till the skin is completely charred. Place it in a bowl and cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Scrape charred skin off the pepper and cut into thin strips.
• Preheat the oven to 425F.
• Remove the casings of the chicken sausage, and cut into chunks.
• Heat oil in a large pan and add the sausages and onions and saute till onions starts to soften.
• Add salt and the balsamic vinegar, cover and cook till most of the liquid is evaporated and the onions are cooked through.
• Remove the cover and add crushed red chilies and garlic. Saute on medium high heat till the sausage is fried well, and the onions are caramelized.
• Place the tortilla on a flat non-stick oven proof pan. Spread 1tbsp tomato puree (or pesto if using) over the tortilla.
• Arrange the sausage, onions and peppers on top of the tortilla. Sprinkle the sliced green onions and finally the crumbled feta.
• Bake in the pre-heated oven for 10 minutes. Slice into four and serve.
• One pizza makes a good enough serving for one person, but if you have a healthy appetite, make sure there is some salad on the side too.
