Notes
- Use a pre-made pizza crust if you are short on time.
- All-purpose flour can be substituted for white whole wheat flour.
- If your pizza dough is too dry, add a teaspoon or two of water.
- If your pizza dough is too sticky, knead in a little flour.
- I prefer to use mozzarella pearls, however slices would work too.
- Feel free to swap any of the ingredients with YOUR favorite Mediterranean toppings: pesto, balsamic glaze, hummus, ricotta, feta, halloumi, oregano, thyme, rosemary, basil, crushed red pepper, arugula, roasted red peppers, sun-dried or cherry tomatoes, Kalamata or black olives, zucchini, and mushrooms.
- Don’t overcrowd the pizza toppings or your crust may become soggy or undercooked.
- Toast the pine nuts prior to adding them to the pizza for best flavor. (Toss with 1 teaspoon olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.)
- Enjoy!
