Pizza Margherita in 4 easy steps

Ingredients For the base 300g strong bread flour 1 tsp instant yeast (from a sachet or a tub) 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for drizzling For the tomato sauce 100ml passata handful fresh basil or 1 tsp dried 1 garlic clove, crushed For the topping 125g ball mozzarella, sliced handful grated or shaved parmesan (or vegetarian alternative) handful of cherry tomatoes, halved To finish handful of basil leaves (optional) Method STEP 1 Make the base: Put the flour into a large bowl, then stir in the yeast and salt. Make a well, pour in 200ml warm water and the olive oil and bring together with a wooden spoon until you have a soft, fairly wet dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 mins until smooth. Cover with a tea towel and set aside. You can leave the dough to rise if you like, but its not essential for a thin crust. STEP 2 Make the sauce: Mix the passata, basil and crushed garlic together, then season to taste. Leave to stand at room temperature while you get on with shaping the base. STEP 3 Roll out the dough: if youve let the dough rise, give it a quick knead, then split into two balls. On a floured surface, roll out the dough into large rounds, about 25cm across, using a rolling pin. The dough needs to be very thin as it will rise in the oven. Lift the rounds onto two floured baking sheets. STEP 4 Top and bake: heat the oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 8. Put another baking sheet or an upturned baking tray in the oven on the top shelf. Smooth sauce over bases with the back of a spoon. Scatter with cheese and tomatoes, drizzle with olive oil and season. Put one pizza, still on its baking sheet, on top of the preheated sheet or tray. Bake for 8-10 mins until crisp. Serve with a little more olive oil, and basil leaves if using. Repeat step for remaining pizza.

1. Pizza is a Protein Powerhouse Do you get enough protein in your diet? This is one area in which pizza undeniably shines. It doesn't matter what kind of pizza you're getting; you'll get a protein punch. Protein makes up the content of your nails, hair, muscles, and bones. It keeps you moving, energized, and strong. We all need adequate protein to get strong and stay healthy. If you choose to get meat on your pizza, you know you'll have lean (or not so lean) protein piled onto your pie. Even if you don't like meat, cheese alone is a great source of protein! Pizza as a post-workout dinner? Yes, please. 2. Red Sauce is Good for You The base of your pizza is usually a thick red sauce, right? That sauce is made from tomatoes (and sometimes other additions like onions, red peppers, and more). Tomatoes are great for your body. They're full of antioxidants. One such antioxidant is lycopene, which is thought to lower the risks of heart disease. This means that pizza, in moderation, might help your heart health! 3. It's Great for Social Behavior Socializing is an important part of your physical and mental health. While some of us may have the occasional pizza alone (we don't judge), most people share a pizza with friends. Pizza promotes healthy social behaviors and bonding.

Healthy Pizza Starts with a Hearty and Bright Red Sauce The quality of the dough may be the body of the pizza, but the sauce serves as the heart. The right, the red sauce can give every bite a bright punch, so its safe to say that it can also make or mar a pizza. With that in mind, a healthy pizza sauce is typically made from tomatoes, which is rich in antioxidants like lycopene. Also found in other vividly-colored fruits like strawberries and raspberries, having enough lycopene can reduce blood pressure, minimize cholesterol, and even help prevent cancer! Its also easy to think that eating fresh is always better, but cooked tomatoes absorb lycopene more. When looking at one tablespoon of pizza sauce, you can find at least 2,000 mcg of lycopene in an average slice.
