Guest Blogger: Emily!

Hello fellow readers! This is Emily from, "Boots N' Berries"! I am so flattered Allison asked me to guest blog and share a recipe with you! This pizza crust recipe originally came from my in-laws, except I've started using wheat flour instead of white! You can use whichever you prefer! Here's the recipe!




Chicken Alfredo Pizza
with whole wheat crust!

This recipe includes:

1. Pizza crust [this makes 2 pizza's- aka 2 cookie sheets]
-2 to 2 1/2 c. water [if you like thick crust use 2 1/2]
-1 Tbs yeast
-5 Tbs sugar
-1/2 tsp salt
-3 to 5 cups whole wheat flour [i cut the recipe in half and used 2 c. wheat flour and 1 cup white]

2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3. Alfredo sauce [pictured below- or personal preference]
4. Brocoli, red pepper, and yellow squash
5. Mozzarella cheese [about 2 1/2 cups]

To Put it Together:

1. First fry chicken in oil until well done. Shred chicken.
2. Dice the vegetables. [smaller is better]



To make the crust:

1. Use luke-warm water.
2. Add yeast. Let sit for 3ish minutes. Stir gently.
3. Add sugar and salt. Stir again.
4. Add flour 2 cups at a time until dough is the right consistency.
Next:

1. Roll the dough out.
2. Transfer dough to greased cookie sheet.
3. Stretch dough into corners.


Then:


1. Spread sauce onto dough. [i use about 2/3 of the bottle for one pizza]
2. Sprinkle a small amount of cheese onto sauce.
3. Bake for 10 minutes.
4. Take pizza out and layer vegetables first, then more cheese. [personal preference]
5. Bake for another 10 minutes.



and finally, Enjoy!!
