Sausage and Kale Pizza
Sausage and kale pizza gives you the best of both worlds. A delicious cheesy pizza with the health benefits of kale, the superfood!
Equipment
- cast iron pizza pan
Ingredients
- Pizza dough see my healthy pizza dough recipe
- Pizza sauce see my pizza sauce recipe
- 1 sausage
- Small bunch of kale stocks removed, chopped and cooked
- 200 g of shredded cheese I prefer a blend of cheeses like parmesan, asiago, mozarella
- 1 tablespoon of canola oil
Instructions
- Make pizza dough and pizza sauce. If you are short on time, store bought is perfectly fine.
- Prepare the toppings. Remove the stalks, chop and sauté the kale. Slice the sausages.
- Brush oil on cast iron pizza pan.
- Pat out and stretch the pizza dough. Then put it on the pizza pan.
- Put on the toppings except basil.
- Heat the cast iron pizza pan on high heat until the bottom of the crust is slightly browned. Use a wok spatula or tongs to lift the crust up slightly so you can see if its browned nicely. Careful to not burn it. This will give your crust a nice texture, slightly crispy on the outside but still soft on the inside.
- Finish cooking the pizza in the oven at 475 °F for 5 minutes or until the cheese is nicely browned the way you like it. The pizza will cook faster since the bottom of the crust is already cooked.
