My family LOVES pizza. We love to make it, buy it, try it you name it, we love Pizza. Besides making it at home we do love searching and finding new pizza places to eat, too. This pizza crust uses whole wheat. My family didn't know the difference and liked it. What flours do you like using for your crust?
So with this in mind, I jumped at the chance to enter the Hodgson Mill Ultimate "Build a Better Pizza" Contest. Even though I think we make the best pizza today it is ever changing with time.We are always experimenting to create the best dough with the best toppings. How about you?
Here is my submission for the Hodgson Mill Ultimate "Build a Better Pizza" Contest.

We frequently order our pizza with whole wheat crust. Whenever we make our own pizza, we always use whole wheat flour for the crust.
