I don’t know about you, but my summers are always filled with pizzas, farms and get-togethers. Unfortunately, the pizzas are not exactly what I would consider healthy.
Finding a pizza with a whole wheat crust is very hard to find, so I just knew I needed to fix that. I hope you enjoy!
Pizza has always been a favorite food of mine, but once I decided to eat healthier, I gave it up because… well… gross! But, once I discovered the awesomeness of using my imagination to create new recipes, pizza was no longer on my “Never Gonna Happen” list.
This pizza is delicious because it doesn’t make you feel yucky after you eat it, much like Dominos does.
