About recipe

Homemade pizza is easy to make and can be so much healthier than what you order for take out. Using store-bought whole wheat dough makes preparing this dish really easy. Experiment with toppings based on what you have on hand.

Ingredients (serves 8)

20 ounces whole wheat pizza dough
Cooking spray
1 Tablespoon cornmeal
1 Tablespoon olive oil
4 cups thinly sliced leeks (white and light green parts only, about 3 large)
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
Roll dough into a 14-16 inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough on a pizza pan or baking sheet coated with cooking spray and sprinkled with cornmeal.
Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add leek. Saute for 10 minutes until softened and lightly browned. Cool to room temperature.
Combine cheeses, pepper, and garlic in a bowl. Spread the cheese mixture over the pizza crust, leaving a 1-inch border. Top with the leek mixture, and sprinkle with walnuts.
5. Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cut into 8 wedges.
