PORTOBELLO & KALE PIZZA



Portobello & Kale Pizza image

Don't expect to have leftovers when you make this tasty, and fairly healthy pizza. It is made on 100% whole wheat crust with a garlic sauce. I like to have the nutrition information from recipezaar (a.k.a. food.com) so I put all the steps into one recipe. Thanks go out to "Kiersten" on ohmyveggies.com, as this recipe is very closely modelled on hers. You can prepare the roasted garlic and toppings ahead of time to make the final preparation a bit easier as you want everything ready to go when the crust is rolled and ready.

Steps:

  • Garlic Pizza Sauce:.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Peel the outer skin from the garlic head to expose the individuals cloves.
  • Cut the top off all the cloves - the root of the garlic holds it all together.
  • Place the garlic top up in an oven proof bowl preferably deeper than the height of the garlic - I used a french onion soup bowl.
  • Pepper the top of the garlic - I use lots of pepper.
  • Drizzle some of the olive oil over the garlic and save the rest for later.

  • Knead about 7 minutes - adding additional flour until you get the right consistency
  • Knead until smooth and elastic.
  • Keep the remaining flour for when you roll the dough.

  • Twist up the edges into a pizza crust shape.
  • Pierce the base of the pizza dough with a fork.
  • Let the crust rest in a warm place for a few minutes.
  • Bake the crust at 450 degrees on a pizza stone for about 5 minutes before putting on your toppings.
  • Portobello & Kale Topping.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat.

  • Add freshly ground pepper and if desired, salt.
