Hi!
I’m feeling a lot better. This afternoon I rested on the couch and cuddled with Dexter for about an hour and then visited my parents for awhile. Since I was already out I decided to just stop at the grocery store for the pizza sauce….somehow kneading dough always brings a smile to my face!
As I was working, I sipped on a glass of the goode stuff 
I think I’ve blogged about this fab-ulous half-whole-wheat pizza dough recipe before here but just in case yall didn’t get it the first time, here it is! Trust me, this is the good(e) stuff!
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
- 1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1.5 tsp sea salt
- 1 packet dry yeast
- 1 1/3 cups warm water
All you do is pour the warm water into a bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over and let dissolve. Sprinkle over the salt and then add the flour. Set on low speed with the dough attachment on a KitchenAid or knead by hand.
While you are kneading (or mixing with the KitchenAid) add the olive oil. Knead by hand for about eight minutes or on medium high speed on the machine for four minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Cover the bowl with a dishcloth and set in a warm spot to rise for about an hour or until doubled in size.
After the dough has risen, weigh out the amount you want to use, cover with toppings and bake at 500 for about 15 minutes! Easy peasy!
Mine was tres bonne! 
I put my Lindt Fleur Du Sel bar out of its misery—
So tonight I’m laying out my running skirt, favorite tank and Garmin and am hitting the *grass* at 6:30 am for a 4 mile run! Wish me luck!!Edited to add: Any bay area or Cali readers want to come meet me, drink wine and support my cause on my trip? (yes you do) Just got word that on Sunday, July 19th, there will be a tasting at the Murphy-Goode headquarters and I can invite my friends (you guys)! I’ll remind you of this again as we get closer but do I have any potential takers? It should be really, really fun AND you guys can taste for free if you are there for me!

I would love to meet you Jenna Let me know when you find out more.
ooo excited.
Jenna, I’m in the Bay Area!!! But shoot! I’m going to be elsewhere in the state on that date! I would absolutely love to come support you if at all possible!
Thanks for the recipe – I’ve been craving pizza for days
I do have a questions though (which might sound stupid, but I’m not the master of the kitchen, so bare with me…): I’m assuming I can freeze the dough that I don’t use? And if so, I guess I’ll be freezing it after letting it rise for an hour…? Thanks!
Good luck with the run ~ I’m sure you’ll rock it the way you do with everything else. Fingers crossed for you with the job ~ if there’s any justice in the world it will be yours!
Mmm, pizza…you’ve inspired me to try and make a wheat-free version of that dough for myself, though I’m not much of a cook!
Hi Jenna – do you know how many calories roughly are in your pizza base? Say for a pizza your size (not Ryan’s). Thanks!
I’m in the bay area, and I’m already a fan of Murphy Goode, so I’d love to join. Keeping my fingers (and toes!) crossed for you
That pizza looks amazing. I’m so jealous of your KitchenAid Stand Mixer!! That’s been on my “wish list” FOREVER now
that pizza looks so delicious! thanks for sharing the recipe again.
i totally wish i lived in cali so i could join you for a wine tasting…especially if it’s FREE! i’m sure you will have a great time while you’re out there. i will be keeping you in my prayers.
Your pizza looks delicious!! I may have to break down and make my own pizza crust instead of using the store bought one all the time. You make it look so easy!
i’ll have to try that pizza dough recipe – it looks great!
i hope you had a good run this morning!
i LOVE homemade pizza! thats reallly cool Cali readers get to come and visit you there for a free tasting!!!
Wow! Your pizza looks fantastic!!! I love making my own pizza. Your crust looks amazing as well…I’ll definitely be trying out your recipe!! yum.
Your pizza looks delicious… I’ve been wanting to try your dough recipe ever since it was first featured on your blog, and I think I might be brave enough to try it tonight.
Quick (and probably silly) questions:
Can I use regular salt, or does it have to be sea salt?
How large of a packet of dry yeast?
Do you use the whole recipe to make two pizza’s?
I’m dreaming of toppings now
The pizza looks delish! I love Margherita style for pizza.
Do you use 5.25 oz for one pizza or for two?
Jenna, your pizza looks great! We’re having it tonight and I’ll have to try out your dough recipe. Question … all I have are huge containers of yeast (active and rapid – I assume it’s active you use?). How would I measure that out? 1 teaspoon?
Thanks!

I can’t wait! Thanks for the answers!
I would love to meet you! I’m about a 2 1/2 drive from the winery…just let us know the specifics when you get them. Thanks
World Market/Cost Plus has a store brand chocolate bar with sea salt. It is delicious! See link:

I live near SF, and I’d love to come show some love for a fellow FL girl!
Jenna — how many pizzas can you typically make from this dough?
