His and Hers Rustic Whole Wheat Pizza

November 19, 2009 by Noelle 19 Comments

When it comes to pizza making, my hubby is the man. He has worked over a year and a half to perfect what he calls the best deep-dish pizza. I totally agree, so usually I do not touch that realm of cooking. Usually. OK. I lie. Here is a picture of his creation:

You know sometimes I prefer thin crust or the original hand-tossed pizza, because the deep dish tends to have to much breading. So I decided to tackle my own pizza with a healthy kick! Why His and Hers Pizzas, you might ask? Well I decided to have one pizza that was for the carnivore hubby and one that was vegetarian. It actually was not that much of a hassle to prepare for both pizzas since the dough was the same for both meals.

The toppings pretty much be what you choose. You can decide not to have tomato sauce as a base or you can have an olive oil / garlic base for the pizza. My pizza did not have cheese and was SURPRISINGLY delicious! I sprinkled some soy parmesan topping and presto, the pizza was complete! We even had enough leftovers for lunch the next day, so have fun and experiment with your own creation.

His and Hers Rustic Whole Wheat Pizza

Dough
recipe from
Keep Your Diet Real


1 package of dry yeast
1 cup of warm water
1 tablespoon of honey
3 ½ cups of whole wheat flour

In a large glass mixing bowl, combine the water, yeast, and honey and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.

Add the flour and combine to form a ball. Place the ball of dough on a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes. The dough should become more elastic.

Place the dough in an oiled mixing bowl and cover it with plastic wrap and a towel then allow it to rise for 1 hour.

Pizza assembly

Punch down the dough and split dough. 3/4 of dough for HIS pizza and 1/4 for HER pizza. Roll it out into the desired pizza shape.
His Pizza

3/4 cup seasoned tomato sauce
3/4 cup sauteed onions, garlic, asparagus tips and Italian seasonings
1 cooked, seasoned chicken breast, diced
1/2 cup black olives
3/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

Saute 2 small onions diced with 4 cloves of garlic, diced for 5 minutes on medium high heat. Add 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, and 1 tsp Italian seasonings. Add 1 cup asparagus tips at the end. Do not overcook green veggie.
Her Pizza

3/4 cup seasoned tomato sauce
3/4 cup sauteed onions, garlic, asparagus tips and Italian seasonings
1 cup radicchio, chopped
1/2 cup Kalamata olives
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
Soy parmesan for sprinkling

Saute 2 small onions diced with 4 cloves of garlic, diced for 5 minutes on medium high heat. Add 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, and 1 tsp Italian seasonings. Add 1 cup asparagus tips at the end. Do not overcook green veggie.

In a bowl, place chopped radicchio, sunflower seeds, olives, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 Tbsp olive oil and toss.

Preheat oven to 425F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Roll out each dough to 1/2 inch thickness and place on cookie sheets.

HIS pizza: Spread sauce, veggie mixture, chicken, olives, cheese
HER pizza: Spread sauce, veggie mixture, radicchio mixture, soy parmesan.

Bake for 12-15 minutes. HER pizza should not be TOO overdone since radicchio is very sensitive. Enjoy with a side salad.
