Pizza

 This is the pizza we make every week.  It's loaded with veggies and not too much cheese and the crust has whole wheat in it.  It's a great healthy alternative to take out pizza.

Ingredients:
1 and 1/2 cup warm water
2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons sugar
4 cups flour (we do 2 cups all purpose and 2 cups whole wheat)
4 teaspoons quick-rise yeast

Preheat oven to 425.

In a large bowl, pour the water.  Add the olive oil, salt, and sugar.  You can mix at this point, but it isn't necessary.  Add the flour and put the yeast on top of the flour.  Mix with your hands and start kneading the dough a bit once all the ingredients have come together.

Once the dough is smooth and elastic (you may need to add a little bit of water or flour depending on whether your dough is too dry or too sticky) form a ball with the dough and put it in the bowl to rest while you prepare the toppings.

You can use whatever toppings you want.  When you are done getting them ready, separate the dough into two equal parts.  Roll out the dough as thin as you can.

Place the rolled out dough onto a circular cookie sheet.  Fold over the dough that is hanging over the edge.

Lay out your toppings on the pizza then add the cheese.  Place in a oven that has been preheated to 425 degrees (I think 400 may be enough but we live at a higher altitude and it seems to need 425) for 25 to 30 minutes.
