Pizza!

This was sort of a use-up-ingredients pizza, but pretty tasty anyway. Pesto/hummus (its not pesto, but not hummus...), onions, mushrooms, spinach, sardines, and cheddar. That's sort of a strange combination now that I think about it, but it tasted good. The best part is the hummus/pesto stuff.



The hummus/pesto was basically a ton of basil, some chickpeas, some toasted walnuts (they turned it gray, not very appetizing-looking, despite being delicious), some toasted garlic, salt, and lots of lots of oil trying to bring it together into a smooth paste. Didn't quite work out like that, but it works as a spread and tastes delicious.

The onions got sweated, as did the mushrooms, and the spinach, before I put them on the pizza. The dough was fairly standard, ~2C of flour to a cup of water and ~1/4C oil, and lots of salt. And yeast. No real rise time, just while I was prepping vegetables. We'll call it free-form pizza, since there isn't much of a recipe to go along with it. Worth making all the same though!
