Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup store-bought pizza sauce
  • 1/4 cup White or Orange Puree (See Make-Ahead Recipe #4, p. 260, or #2, p. 258)
  • 1 large (about 12-inch) store-bought pizza crust, ideally whole grain (like Boboli® whole grain)
  • 1 cup cooked elbow pasta, ideally whole grain
  • 1 1/2 cups part-skim shredded mozzarella cheese

Preparation

Step 1

> Preheat oven to 450 degrees and preheat a pizza stone, if using one, or spray a baking sheet with oil.

> In a mixing bowl, combine pizza sauce with White or Orange Puree. Mix well. Spread sauce evenly over pizza crust. Scatter cooked pasta evenly over the sauce, then top with shredded cheese. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.

> Allow to cool a few minutes, then cut into wedges and serve.
