EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

*All breads made with at least 8 grams whole grain. At least 48 grams whole grain recommended daily.

Want a more authentic deep dish? Sprinkle 1 tablespoon cornmeal in the cast-iron skillet before adding the dough.

In place of the turkey sausage, use pork sausage, making sure to drain the cooked sausage before adding the remaining ingredients.

I really like the artisan whole grain crust! this recipe sounds yummy! I used it to make Stromboli, flatted out dough real thin on a piece of foil I sprayed with oil. I brushed the inside of dough with home made garlic spread then layered with mushroom, onion, red bell peppers, pepperoni and shredded cheese. I used edge of foil to roll dough 2/3 of way then use other side of foil to pull other side up to close it. Turn so open edge of dough in down, close ends, put a couple slits on top. This was wonderful! (I par-boiled pepperoni so it wouldn't be so greasy)

Bless your sticky doughy lil' heart. Our Doc just put us on a whole grain diet. I sure hope we see more products in whole grain. These would also make great calazones.

On reviewer commented asking where the veggies were..The recipe calls for Roma tomatoes, mushrooms, onions plus I am sure whatever others you would like..You must have missed it.
