Tastes Like Food

I spend countless hours in the kitchen quite frequently cooking up some pretty amazing dishes for my friends and family. I love to cook, try new recipes, but recently I discovered a little “short cut” in making a fantastic dish–homemade pizza made so easy, anyone can make this and it’s virtually impossible to screw up.

Starting off with the “short cut” part of this: BUY PRE-MADE FROZEN WHOLE FOODS BRAND PIZZA DOUGH FROM WHOLE FOODS. They make the most out-of-this-world dough and it’s only about $3. Set it out until it reaches room temperature and then divide the dough in half (makes 2 medium pizzas). Roll it super thin and place it onto a pizza pan (my pan has little holes on the bottom to make the dough crispy). Then drizzle about 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil onto the dough and add 2 crushed cloves of fresh garlic–now spread that around the dough, covering all of it. Next, top the dough with a layer of fresh baby spinach leaves. Then add slices of mozzarella fresca and top that with freshly grated parmesan cheese and fresh ground black pepper and salt to taste.

Preheat oven to 425°. Place pizza into your oven for about 10-12 minutes. Enjoy. I recommend pairing this pizza with Vinyard Block Estates’ 2005 “Block 312″ Cabernet Sauvignon.
