Margherita Pizza Wheels (with tomato, basil, and mozzarella)

My family and I are back from a long weekend in Austin, Texas where I attended this year’s BlogHer Food conference. It was a blast and I can’t wait to tell you all about it. But first up, these incredible margherita pizza wheels deserve their day in the sun.

There’s nothing incredibly fancy or difficult here, just a new way to eat an old favorite. I was inspired when I saw these pepperoni pizza wheels by Spoon Fork Bacon and I knew I had to give them my own spin with a little tomato, basil, and mozzarella.

Basic Pizza Dough

While I’ve always liked pizza, I didn’t become a pizza lover until I started making my own. It’s just so much better than delivery and even a lot of fancy pizzerias. Pizza night is now a regular fixture in our house and so this basic pizza dough recipe that gets used a lot. 

I’ve adapted it over time into what is for me, a near perfect pizza crust. It’s light and crispy on the outside while staying chewy on the inside. A wonderful base for whatever ingredients you like.

Sourdough Pancakes

One of my favorite memories from culinary school was the week we learned about sourdough bread and each made our own starter. I was fascinated by the processes. I proudly brought mine to class and baked the prettiest and tastiest loaf of sourdough bread, and vowed I’d be making sourdough bread from that starter for years to come.

But I didn’t. I neglected it and eventually had to throw my starter away. When I saw this Red Star Yeast recipe for sourdough pancakes, it reignited that initial excitement. Me and sourdough, we were going to start afresh.

Sun-dried Tomato Cheese Bread

Carbs have not been my friend lately. My baby is almost one year old (can you believe it?) and I’m still carrying a few extra pounds that I just can’t seem to shake. I’ve made some changes recently and have been doing really well, that is until I baked this loaf of fat-free sun-dried tomato cheese bread and devoured almost the whole thing.

I was lured in on a dreary afternoon with the thought of warm bread. The fact that it is low in fat sealed the deal and before I knew it I had dough kneading in the mixer.

Raspberry Turnovers

I first fell in love with popovers in college. I remember my roommates and I would make a batch sometimes late at night, slather them with strawberry jam and talk about all the things that girls in their early twenties do. Boys, probably. I didn’t have much luck with the boys in college, so there were a lot of popovers.

Looking back I think I made out pretty good. I’d trade any of those guys for a dozen popovers any day.
