1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup fat-free milk
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
For the pizza
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 clove garlic, minced OR 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
2 cups thinly sliced vegetables (sliced tomatoes, spinach, red onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, chopped broccoli, etc.)

Instructions
For the crust
- Before you begin wash your hands, surfaces, utensils, and vegetables.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder.
- Add milk and oil. Stir until a dough forms. If dough is too dry, continue to add milk, 1-2 teaspoons at a time, until the dough comes together in a ball.
- Remove dough from bowl. Knead, using your hands, about 10 times. Form into a ball and return to bowl.
- Cover bowl with a towel and allow the dough to rest for 10 minutes.
- Remove dough from bowl onto a lightly floured clean counter surface. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle and place on a nonstick baking sheet or pizza pan.
- Use a fork to poke the dough 8-10 times. Bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before adding toppings.
For the pizza
- In a small bowl, mix the garlic or garlic powder and Italian seasoning with oil.
- Use your fingertips or a pastry brush to spread the oil mixture over the pizza crust.
- Spread spaghetti sauce evenly over the pizza crust leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
- If using sliced tomatoes, spread them on top of the tomato sauce first.
- Distribute remaining vegetables evenly across the pizza crust.
- Sprinkle grated cheese over the vegetables.
- Bake 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and the crust has browned.
Tips
- You could also use a pre-baked or refrigerated pizza dough instead of making your own dough from scratch
- You can use canned or jarred tomato sauce or make a batch of the Celebrate Your Plate tomato sauce and refrigerate or freeze the rest of the sauce.
