Margherita Pizza Recipes

We've bumped up the nutrition--and kept all the flavor--of this traditional Italian pizza with tomato, sliced mozzarella, basil, and olive oil.

Traditionally a very simple, yet flavorful Italian pizza constructed of dough, tomatoes, garlic, basil, mozzarella, olive oil, & sea salt.
In this recipe, I've taken the liberty of adding crumbled feta cheese, simply because I ♥ feta on pizza :)

We wanted to refit the classic margherita pizza recipe for the home oven, and we didn't want our recipe to take too much time (no multiple rising sessions) or effort. We found that a food processor made quick work of our dough, mixing it in just two minutes. We also found that we could shape the dough right out of the food processor, eliminating one of the two rises that most bread recipes require. After only one hour, we were ready to roll—but it was tricky to roll the wet, sticky dough as thinly as we wanted. Our solution was to use 1 part cake flour to 2 parts all-purpose flour, a combination that made the dough for our pizza margherita recipe more tender.

You'll never order delivery pizza again after making this homemade recipe.

Sometimes nothing satisfies like a slice of cheesy pizza. This one's made with a whole-wheat crust and part-skim mozzarella, so it's ideal for dieters — and anyone in the mood for a slice.

Margherita Pizza - pizza with no meat and super yummy!

From epicurious.com

The dough needs to be made at least 18 hours ahead of time and allowed to re-rise for 2-3 more hours.

The original pizza we used to have was made with Heirloom tomatoes. I did not have these, but I did have a fresh homegrown tomato.

Satisfy a craving for a slice with a low-carb version wrapped up in a fluffy omelette.

For even lower fat, use an oil pump or olive oil flavor Pam (I prefer the real deal as it's full of good fats). You can also use egg whites instead of whole eggs, or reduce the amount of veggies and just use one egg. You can add other pizza veggies like mushrooms and peppers if you want, I prefer it to be Margherita style (only with spinach replacing the basil).

This size omelet is big enough for a dinner-size meal, in my opinion.

Most importantly, it's veggie packed, protein rich and deeeelicious.

Based on The Splendid Kitchen margherita pizza, this is a wonderful light meal or snack - just 85 calories per slice!

Yummy, but a bit high in calories...

You can make this dish light if you are sure to use the part skim mozzarella cheese!

A spicy twist on a classic pizza.
