Whole Wheat Veggie Pizza

I was craving pizza today, but I did not want a typical New York slice. I came up with a great recipe for a crispy and healthy alternative. I put peppers, onion, broccoli and spinach on my pie, but you can add whatever you'd like to yours.

Ingredients:

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 cup water

2 teaspoons olive or sesame oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

2 teaspoons honey

1 packet yeast

1 1/2 cups low fat grated mozzarella cheese (I like Organic Valley or Horizon) or vegan mozzarella cheese

1 cup organic tomato sauce (take a good look on the label and make sure it is not filled with sugar)

Assortments of chopped up fresh veggies

Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Dissolve one packet of yeast into one cup of warm water. Combine flour, oil, salt, honey and yeast water combo into a large bowl. Knead all of the ingredients together for ten minutes or until smooth. Form into a ball and cover for an hour. You will notice the dough has doubled in size (this is normal). Flour a non stick cookie sheet and place off to the side. Roll or stretch out dough into a rectangle (be sure to keep flouring service). Slowly pull edges until the dough is roughly the same size as the sheet. Place dough on floured cookie sheet (make sure not to tear the dough because it is very thin). Pull up edges of dough over edges of the cookie sheet. Spread tomato sauce, cheese and veggies generously across crust. Place in oven for 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!
