We arrived early afternoon and Donna showed the 10-year-olds around her inn before they wandered outside to check out her dog, cat, and the swimming pool. I was curious about what we were having for lunch, so Donna told me about the wonderful recipe for pizza she got from her daughter. Both Donna and I are very much into healthy cooking and eating so combining a bowl full of veggies, cheese, and a whole wheat crust seemed like a great idea. The girls wouldn't realize they were eating Spinach and whole wheat with all that cheese.
Donna had cut up some vegetables and caramelized the onions. She put the cheeses in little bowls and set out a Boboli whole wheat crust. She is so organized! Then she asked me to assemble the whole thing.
Following are the ingredients and method we used to produce that fabulous bit of heaven. We all gobbled it down like we hadn't eaten in weeks. It was so good.
After that wonderful summer day, at Donna's, she and I got together and re-did the ingredients and method for making this delicious pizza, made some changes and printed out a recipe card so we'd be able to duplicate it. I've printed the recipe below so all of you can enjoy it.
RECIPE
1 Boboli whole wheat pizza crust
*1 tub Boursin cream cheese
Place pizza crust in a pizza stone (preferably) or a metal pizza pan. Spread the Boursin cheese over the crust, using a flexible spatula. Top with the following ingredients in order:

Looks and sounds delicious! I use the House of Pasta crust and it's seriously better than take out. I love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kelly, for being the very first to comment. House of Pasta? Where is that? I don't think we have it in Louisville. Or is that a brand I can buy in a market somewhere or order on line?
