I don’t really know what to post about anymore. Now that I’ve recapped my whole trip to Utah, I’m not sure what to write about! I like to write about my days, but lately they’ve all been pretty similar —-> Cross Country, Eat, Work, Eat, Bed. And pretty soon throwing school in there too.
I’ve always wanted to be a more recipe focused blog, so I guess I’ll start with this.
Whole Wheat Pesto Pizza.
I definitely prefer the taste of whole wheat over white dough. I made this as a plain cheese pizza with white flour too and while it turned out well, this is way better.
The kale got a little crispy on top.. I’m not quite sure how to fix that. Maybe add more cheese? If anyone has tips to prevent topping from burning on pizza please share in the comments!
I based the dough off of Sally’s recipe and it was wonderful. The perfect thickness and density but still light and airy. YUM.
Of course you can be fancy and make your own pesto for this but I don’t have a food processor sooo that’s not in the question for me
Question: do you want to see more recipes or more life focused posts?
Linking up with Tina for Meatless Monday
Looks so delicious Leigha!! I’d love to see more recipes on your blog
You make the most delicious food!
Thanks, Josefine! I’d like to post more recipes
What a beautiful pizza Leigha! Love the combination of flavors, and especially with pesto. My favorite! People think that pizza is bad for runners, but I enjoy it a lot, and I have managed to run pretty darn fast with it….as have you so far, and will continue to improve even more. I am excited to see how cross country goes for you, it was always my favorite season. I hope someday to take a break in marathon training to do the cross country US trials….if I become a citizen
I think pizza has the perfect balance of carbs/veggies/protein for runners
that would be so cool! You would totally rock it!
BEAUTIFUL photos! Homemade pizza is the best
Thanks, Rebecca
I agree!
Yessssssss. I love pizza, I love pesto, I love veggies. This is perfect! And I’d actually love the crispy kale on top— texture!
I love both your recipes and life posts!
Hahaha yes. Different textures all the way.. but it was a little burnt
thanks girly!
I just have to say how impressed I am with your baking and photography ability – I have no creativity when it comes to recipes haha! This looks amazing, btw <3
It will come someday
just keep experimenting! Thanks girly!
Leigha! your pictures! Food Network photographers better step up their game haha. And I wish I had a food processor- mine went to heaven after I blended a bunch of dates with the pits on by accident!
Aww thanks girly! Ugh, I need one SO bad. I want to get a Vitamix so I can have both a blender and processor – right now I use a magic bullet!
Yum! This looks (and sounds) amazing.
Thanks girly
This looks incredible! I love the slightly crispy kale on top. YUM! Beautiful pictures, too
Thank you!
This pizza looks killer! I definitely prefer the taste of whole wheat over white and I’d take this over any delivery pizza, for sure. Glad I just found your blog — it’s crazy, because I was saying literally last week that I never see any fellow Michigan bloggers, let alone fellow cat ladies. I’m in Midland (originally from Frankenmuth)
Woohoooo Michigan girls! Do you ever go to the UP? If you do don’t hesitate to let me know – I’d love to meet ya
This looks so tasty! I love mushroom pizza. Thank you for linking at the In and Out of the Kitchen Link Party. Hope to see you again next week.
