âI created this pizza myself, and itâs become one of our favorites! The vegetables' bright colors make it very appealing.â Nancy Lindsay â New Market, Iowa Ingredients:
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
1 cup warm water (110° to 115°) |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
2 teaspoons sugar |
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/2 teaspoon garlic-herb seasoning blend |
1/2 cup king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
2-1/4 to 2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached bread flour |
1 tablespoon cornmeal |
4 teaspoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/4 cups 2% milk |
1-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast |
1 cup fresh baby spinach |
1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese |
dash white pepper |
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms |
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped |
1 small onion, diced |
1/2 cup chopped green pepper |
1/4 cup sliced ripe olives |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1/2 cup shredded colby-monterey jack cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the oil, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, seasoning blend, whole wheat flour and 2-1/4 cups bread flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough. 2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat the top. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes. 3. Punch dough down; roll into a 15-in. circle. Sprinkle cornmeal over a 14-in. pizza pan coated with cooking spray. Transfer dough to prepared pan; build up edges slightly. Bake at 425° for 12-14 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. 4. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine flour and milk until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add the chicken, spinach, Parmesan cheese, pepper and remaining salt. Cook and stir over medium heat until spinach is wilted. 5. Spread sauce over crust; top with remaining ingredients. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until cheeses are melted. Yield: 8 servings. |
