Farm Pizza

Watch the related video story: A New Family Farmer Michael Paine is a rare breed; he doesn’t come from a farming family, and he’s relatively young. His story is a good example of the unique challenges facing those who wish to take up farming.

For a hardy farm lunch we like to make pizza out of what is currently coming out of the field. The recipe changes throughout the season but see below for some ideas. For the pizza dough we recommend making your own, Joy of Cooking has a good easy recipe. Be sure to bake the dough for 5-10 minutes before putting on the toppings, this will help to keep it from getting soggy with all the veggies.

Ingredients:

    Spring Season:

  • Arugula
  • sweet onions
  • Parmesan cheese
  • olive oil
    Summer Season:

  • Fresh tomato sauce
  • ricotta
  • Basil pesto
  • summer squash
  • fresh tomato slices
  • Cilantro
  • corn
  • sweet onion
    Fall Season:

  • Winter squash
  • rosemary
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Beets
  • kale
  • roasted garlic and Fontina

Yield: Serves 4-6 people (depending on size of pizza you make!)
