I'm-a Makin' a Pizza Pie!

A few nights ago a made a batch of whole wheat pizza crusts to freeze and use when I'm having a pizza craving (which is oh-so often). I followed this Everyday Food Recipe and made one of the delicious pizzas tonight! And got to use my new food processor! Super-psyched! After the crusts were made, frozen, and then defrosted at my leisure, the rest of the recipe is really a snap.

I put some grape tomatoes, some minced garlic, and a little oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper into the food processor, and whirled it all up together. Then you pile that mixture on your smoothed-out dough like a sauce and bake for about 20 min - you can add some olive oil too at this point, but I refrained to keep it as light as possible. In the mean time, toss together some arugula, some shaved Parmesan, and a little balsamic vinegar. I topped the pizza with this mixture for the last minute or so of baking and it melted together really nicely! The flavors were great and it's perfect for one since the rest of the dough was left frozen until I want another one! I have seven crusts left, and Lord knows I’ll be using them. Delish meal, Martha does it again.

Martha's....

and mine!
