    One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well. This week I am transitioning back into sharing recipes that my family loves. Im sure by now that youre no stranger to the ever-so-popular Greek yogurt dough that used in these bagels, this grilled pizza, and this breakfast pizza. This dough is quick and easy to make no time for rising needed. For other no-yeast alternatives, use French bread or tortilla pizza. For a low-carb pizza option, try my Zucchini Pizza Bites.,Alt=,We have been making pizza quite a bit in my home on Friday nights. Weve used sourdough starter dough and traditional pizza dough with yeast. However, most days when I want to whip up a quick pizza that doesnt require waiting for the dough to rise, and especially when I couldnt find yeast, this homemade pizza dough recipe is my go-to. Its also Madisons favorite. She prefers the thin crust of this pie over thicker crust.,Greek yogurt instead of plain is a must. If theres any liquid in the yogurt, be sure to drain it.,I highly recommend using Stonyfield Greek Yogurt because its thicker than other brands. If you use another brand, it may result in stickier dough, which would be hard to work with.,If your dough is sticky, add more flour or use less yogurt.,Ive tested this dough with white and whole wheat flour. Both work, but the white flour results in lighter and airier pizza.,I love this nonstick pizza dish. Its 14-inches round and easy to clean since its nonstick.,Cast-Iron Thin Crust Pizza,Red White + Blue Fruit Pizza,French Bread Pizza Mummies,Passover Matzo Pizza,Grilled Pizza

    Lightly Dust Flour on a Work Surface and Remove Dough from the Bowl, Knead the Dough a Few Times Until Dough Is Tacky, but not Sticky, About 20 Turns (it Should not Leave Dough on Your Hand When You Pull Away).
