Chicken & Kale Lover’s Pizza

When I’m stuck in my house and want a pizza I have to see what is available for ingredients. Today there is a package of Adel’s Chicken Apple Sausage and mozzarella in the fridge. There is also can of tomatoes, some onions, and kale from the garden. Good enough! Dave and I will have a Chicken & Kale lover’s Pizza in no time.

I did a little investing towards the flour for this pizza. You, of course, use what is available to you. But I’m totally into grinding my own whole grain kernels and milling freshly grained wheat! Using this method, there is no fortified processing or enrichment necessary. What God put in the grain is still in tact and ready to nourish this body. Plus it is not bleached and sitting on a shelf becoming rancid.

Check out Sue Brecker’s site on how to begin milling your own wheat.

Benefits

100 grams of soft white kernel (whole grain) wheat is quite nutritious too! It provides a good sources of zinc, potassium, manganese, thiamin, niacin, and folate. Check out the nutrition facts here. Put this whole wheat together with some nitrate and nitrite free sausage, top with some fresh kale and onions, and yum this Chicken & Kale Lover’s Pizza becomes an easy delicious and nutritious pizza.

Devotion

The beauty of nutrition in the food we eat is the plan of provision for our sustenance. Where there is evidence of a physical plan, there is also a spiritual plan. The earth opens to bear its fruits of nourishment and Isaiah reminds us the heavens open to provide spiritual renewal.

“Shower, O heavens, from above,

    and let the clouds rain down righteousness;

let the earth open, that salvation and righteousness may bear fruit;

    let the earth cause them both to sprout;

    I the Lord have created it.

Isaiah 45:7-9 ESV – I form light and create darkness; I – Bible Gateway

I pray you enjoy the richness of the Lord in the land of the living today and every day. If you ever need prayer just let me know!
