Herb Sourdough Veggie Pizza

During the pandemic, I became obsessed with making homemade sourdough bread. Three years later and nothing has changed. I may not make daily sourdough pizzas for lunch anymore, but I do make them a couple times a week for dinner. In honor of Pi Day today, I figured I’d share my go-to pizza recipe: a made-from-scratch, gluten-free herb sourdough veggie pizza. It’s simple but delicious with an herbed sourdough crust, a saucy marinara, melted mozzarella, and topped with plenty of vegetables so that I can claim I’m making a somewhat nutritious decision. We’re making pizza a bit earlier than usual to celebrate March 14th and the most interesting (a.k.a. a never ending or repeating) number ever. I hope it inspires you to celebrate today with plenty of pizza pies, fruit pies, and pot pies as well. Happy Pi Day!

Ingredients:
Dried Herbs (I chose Oregano, Basil, and Thyme)
Shredded Mozzarella
Marinara
Spinach
White Onions, diced
Yellow and Orange Bell Peppers, chopped
Mushrooms, sliced
Homemade Sourdough
Salt, to taste

Recipe:

1. Make your own sourdough. I used this recipe.
2. Once you have the sourdough, add your dried herbs of choice + a pinch of salt to the dough. Mix it in and flatten the dough over your pizza tray. Tip: To make the pizza easy to remove from the parchment paper, I always spray a little cooking oil first.
3. Add a generous amount of marinara, followed by the shredded mozzarella, and topped with your favorite toppings. I like to add a half cup of sauce and a half cup of cheese for a personal pizza.
4. Bake for 25 minutes at 400 degrees, or until cooked.
5. Enjoy!

A Dose of Pretty

Lately, time feels as if it moves quickly and slowly at the same time. It reminds me of how people say when they are in love, their heart beats faster and slower at the same time. We’re somehow going to spring forward this weekend and celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day next week. Even with the atmospheric rivers and extra rain in California currently, I can feel the seasons shift from a cold winter to a brighter, sunnier spring. This weekend we’re up in Northern California to visit my family. I’m excited for some rainier days, shopping at my favorite boutiques near home, and going to our favorite restaurants while we’re here. I hope you have a great weekend as well!
