All it takes is #OneSimpleChange. Whole foods-- simply means getting your vitamins and minerals from fruits and vegetables rather than lab-created. Vitamins and nutrients are more readily absorbed by the body through #wholefoods. #LoveMyJuicePlus #juiceplus #vitamins #minerals #nutrients #colormyplate #bridgethegap #diet #healthfood #healthykids #getyourkidtoeatveggies

PIZZA :)

Here's a simple dough recipe for a perfect home made pizza :)

Total Time: 4 hours (including proofing time)

Servings: Makes 3 12" round pizzas

Ingredients for the dough:

Flour- 3 cups, 500 grams

Instant Yeast- 2 tbsp

Sugar- 2.5 tsp

Salt- 1.5 tsp

Oil- 5-6 tbsp

Warm water- as required

Directions:

Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl or mixer. 

Add oil and rub it in with your fingertips till the flour mixture gets grainy.

Now slowly add warm water and knead until a nice soft dough is formed.

Knead for 7-8 minutes. The more you knead the dough the nicer and fluffier it will be.

Shape the dough into a ball and apply oil to it with your hand.

Now cover it with a wet cloth and keep it in a warm place for at least 3 hours or until the dough has doubled in size.

Top the pizza dough with your favorite toppings, bake it until the dough is brown and crisp and serve hot :)
