Enjoy a salad that is exploding with flavor!
Kristin Andrus shares a recipe that will make a salad pop with flavor.
Piadina Dough
2 packages store bought whole grain or plain pizza dough (Whole Foods has the best)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
6 Tb Pesto
Bring the dough to room temperature. Using a pizza cutter or knife divide each dough ball into 3-4 portions depending on how big you want your Piadina crust. Cover dough balls in flour and stretch out to desired size. You may want to stretch it out, let it rest, then stretch it out again. Brush both sides with EVOO. If using a BBQ, grill on high until first side has firmed up (3-4 minutes). Flip over and cook for 1-2 more minutes until dough is cooked through. If baking pizza dough, preheat oven to 400 and cook for 9-10 minutes not needing to flip sides. Once cooked, brush each crust with 1 Tb of pesto. Set aside.
