Pizza Night
Trial and Error
Tonight was one of those nights when the family wanted pizza. I had the usual pepperoni and cheese waiting for them and I thought what the heck am I going to do, I need to buy more groceries! I decided to look in my cupboards and fridge to see what I could find and here is what I did. I'm not sure if there is something wrong with my taste buds but I loved it! I tried both versions of what I had made then thought to myself what if I put one slice on top of the other and blended all the flavours together? Well, I may just be on to something I loved it even more!!
The one thing I will say is that I chose a Indian Roti as the base for my pizza and looking at the calorie count for just half of one small round- 160 calories, I didn't think it was worth it so watch out for that. I think it is time to pull out my mixer to make my own healthy dough.
The other note I would make is that I would use thin tomatoe slices instead next time.
Black Bean Pizza
Combine 1/2 cup of black beans with a teaspoon of pizza sauce- homemade preferably.
Mash together then spread over base.
Add sliced chipotle pepper ( canned in Adobe sauce- spicy )
Top with sliced green onion and green olives and what the heck more green if you like...
Add small slices of fresh avocado once the pizza comes out of the oven.
Tomatoe and Pepper Pizza
Add tomatoe sauce to base then top with Daiya shredded Mozz strings
Add roasted or sliced tomatoes and roasted red peppers
light sprinkle of kosher salt
( I should have added broccoli to this pizza I think )
I prepared cherry tomatoes by halving them and drizzling them with a drop of olive oil them topped with salt and pepper. I put them in the oven at 400 for about 10 min. |
