Pizza with asparagus, zucchini and ham on a whole wheat crust
Here is a suggestion for when you’re craving pizza but want it to be healthier than the usual delivery kind. I buy from Flying Wedge pizza when I don’t feel like making my own. I love their multi-grain crust, their vegetables on the pizzas and the variety.
Whole wheat panini bread, pizza crust, or tortillas
1/2 can tomato paste
honey
Italian herbs (or dried/fresh basil, oregano, thyme)
dash sea salt
1 tablespoon red onion
3 stalks asparagus, chopped
1/2 zucchini, sliced thinly
slices of cooked chicken or thawed cooked shrimp (optional)
goat cheese
mozzarella cheese, grated (or soy mozza, goat mozza or other white cheese)
Other topping suggestions: red pepper, broccoli, kale, spinach, mushrooms, garlic, fresh tomato, grated carrots, cilantro, ground bison, lamb
Preheat oven to 450°F.
Place pizza crust on pizza stone or cookie sheet. Spread tomato paste onto pizza crust. Drizzle on a bit of honey. Add herbs and dash of sea salt. Add onions, vegetables and chicken/shrimp. Add bits of goat cheese and grated mozzarella cheese.
Put pizza in oven for approximately 8 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Enjoy!
