Homemade Healthy Pizza

Hello!

I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. I got a great recipe from Trevor (the nutritionist) and I wanted to share it with you. Its easy, nutritious and if your feeling adventurous I've got some new flavours for you to try... and if your not feeling adventurous the old favourites work great too!

Ingredients:
1 Focaccia loaf (Love the ones from Farm Boy!)
1 Jar of Pizza Sauce (Also love this from Farm Boy)
1 package of Goat Cheddar (Farm Boy... surprise, surprise lol)
1 Large cooking onion
1 Cup Sliced Mushrooms
Turkey pepperoni

How To:
Caramelize the onions and mushrooms and while your doing that slice the focaccia bread in half and lay both pieces cut side up on a baking sheet. Spread with pizza sauce.

Put pepperoni on the pizza followed be the caramelized veggies and then the goat cheese.

Bake in the oven at 350* until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted - about 20minutes.

Sprinkle with red pepper flakes or hot sauce to taste and enjoy!

The goat cheese adds great flavour and (luckily) the hard cheddar type is no where near as strong tasting as the soft type. But if your not ready to try it then regular mozarella works just as well. And you can make this recipe with all of your favourite toppings. For example I made pizza for Zach tonight as well but instead of the turkey pepperoni he had cooked natural bacon. I also cut the bread so his was much thicker... as you can see in the picture below :)

Stay Healthy!
