Today, let’s give a blissful shout-out to pizza as I walk your taste buds on a journey of vibrant, real, and healthy ingredients that are sure to transport you to a realm of culinary ecstasy.

Welcome back to Oceans Bliss Portal! Today, I invite you to join me in unveiling my all-time favourite homemade pizza creation, where I celebrate the beauty of non-GMO, seasonal, organic and fair trade whole foods. Let the journey begin!

At the core of this pizza masterpiece is a thin crust which my family has mastered over the years! Handcrafted from scratch using traditional techniques and sprouted organic flour. Complementing this dough, I add the essence of homegrown goodness with my own organic tomato sauce. Every year, I can tomatoes that are called ‘seconds’, they are fully ripe and half the cost. They give a simple burst of freshness and home-grown flavour to my pizzas.

Inspired by the mouthwatering pizzas I ate up during my travels in Brazil, I add non-gmo corn to this delectable pizzalicious creation. Grown locally, this sweet corn brings a unique flavour to my pizza. When combined with a drizzle or should I say a Brazilian splash or bath of  olive oil, it creates a flavour that takes your taste buds on a journey to South America.

Now picture the sun-drenched shores of the Mediterranean, where artichokes and beetroots flourish, and are literally the size of my head! I gained inspiration from my time in Cyprus, Turkey for the next two  ingredients.  The artichokes add a subtle earthiness, while the beetroots contribute their vibrant purple hues and a  touch of natural sweetness. I source these two ingredients out from a local Italian organic farmer nearby that has an amazing selection of produce!

In my quest to create a delicious pizza, I discovered a hidden gem at a local market. A vendor’s suggestion led me to the discovery of pea shoots—an awesome addition that brings freshness and a touch of bliss to my pizza. I add these to the pizza after it comes out of the oven, and these young shoots add a fresh crunch and a burst of greenery.

No pizza is complete without the cheesy goodness that binds the ingredients together and I love a plant-based option, which is the best option for me! The company I buy from is local and creates organic homemade plant based ‘cheeze’ that I can sprinkle on the the pizza.

As I assemble this pizza masterpiece, I feel so happy knowing that each ingredient has been thoughtfully chosen, bearing in mind not only its taste but also the immense benefits it provides for my well-being. Crafting my own food allows me to infuse each slice with bliss, creativity, and a celebration of life. From sourcing the finest organic produce to combining flavours from different corners of the globe, this homemade pizza embodies the essence of bliss-to-table.
