Whole Wheat Vegetable Pizza Recipe.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) quick-rise yeast
1 TSP garlic powder
1/2 TSP salt
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup water
2 TBSPs olive oil
SAUCE:


1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 TBSP minced fresh parsley
1-1/2 TSPs sugar
1-1/2 TSPs Italian seasoning
1-1/2 TSPs dried basil
1/2 TSP garlic powder
1/4 TSP pepper
TOPPINGS:


1 TSP olive oil
1 cup chopped zucchini
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped green or red pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
1-1/4 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Recipe Instructions:

In a large bowl, mix first 4 ingredients and 1 cup all-purpose flour.
In a small saucepan, heat water and oil to 120 degrees -130 degrees.
Add to dry ingredients; beat on medium speed 3 minutes.
Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.

In a small saucepan, bring sauce ingredients to a boil.
Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Punch down dough.
On a lightly floured surface, divide dough in half and roll each into a 12"
circle.
Place on 2 greased 12"
pizza pans; prick with a fork.
Bake until lightly browned, 8-10 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute vegetables until zucchini is crisp-tender.
Spread crusts with sauce; top with vegetables and cheese.
Bake until cheese is melted, 12-15 minutes.
