By Sandra Woodruff

 Printer friendly page

Yield: 8 slices
 
One recipe Bread Machine Pizza Dough or Hand-Rolled Pizza Dough
3/4 cup ready-made marinara sauce
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup nonfat or light ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

2. Roll the pizza dough into a 14-inch circle and transfer to a 14-inch pizza pan coated with cooking spray. Set aside for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the crust to rise slightly.

3. Top the crust with the sauce and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Dot heaping teaspoons of the ricotta cheese over the top and then sprinkle with the mozzarella.

4. Bake for about 12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the pizza is lightly browned. Serve hot.

Time-Saving Tip: substitute 10 ounces frozen (thawed) whole-wheat bread dough for the homemade pizza dough. Or make 4 mini-pizzas using whole grain pita bread, flatbread, or tortillas for the crusts.  (Bake mini pizzas for about 8 to 10 minutes).
