Heath's Saucy Pizza By: Abby R.

Recipe Story

My 2-year-old son, Heath, has cystic fibrosis. He was tested at birth and diagnosed within two weeks. He is the typical 2-year-old boy, who is wild and has no fear! We love pizza in our house and have a Friday night tradition of making homemade pizzas and eating in the den while we watch a movie. It's something we all look forward to each week. We had typically made traditional pizzas with marinara sauce until my 4-year-old, daughter, Adah, (cystic fibrosis recessive gene) started requesting "no sauce.” Heath now requests "with sauce," hence the recipe title, "Heath's Saucy Pizza." Having the flexibility for everyone to make their own "special" pizza is fun for the kids and it allows my husband and I to watch our calorie intake while increasing Heath's.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 tsp instant rise yeast
  • 1 c warm water
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • 3 c whole wheat flour
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 4-5 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 c thick cut pepperoni, diced
  • 1/4 c cooked sausage, crumbled
  • 1/4 c tomato sauce
  • 1/4 c whole fat mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 c shredded parmesan cheese
  • Corn meal for dusting, optional
  • Add All Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

  2. Combine honey, yeast and warm water. Allow to proof and bubble for about 10 minutes.

  3. Add flour and salt and mix to form the dough with a fork or hands.

  4. Once combined, cover and allow to rise for about 30 minutes.

  5. Separate the dough into 4 equal pieces.

  6. Roll out the dough on a floured surface.

  7. Coat the dough with a liberal helping of olive oil, tomato sauce, sausage, pepperoni and top with mozzarella and parmesan cheese; drizzle with olive oil.

  8. Place on a pizza stone or a cookie sheet dusted with cornmeal. Place in oven for 8-12 minutes. Allow to cool and enjoy!
