Boston wanted us to deliver a healthy, signature dish to them that highlighted some Boston pride. We thought that the Green Monstah – the iconic left field wall in Fenway Park (the stadium where the Red Soxs play) – fit the bill. For this dish we incorporated several green things….Kale pesto, sautéed spinach and zucchini. We put these on a base of white pizza from Sal’s (this is the pizza supplier for BPS) and topped that with feta cheese and red onions. Though this dish is a little involved, it is well worth the effort. Pizza is a great delivery vehicle for the healthy items that might normally be shunned.
12.5 each Sal’s Cheese and Garlic White pizza (whole grain)
12.5 bunches kale, center rib removed and chopped
2 tsp. salt
12.5 cups grated parmesan or Romano cheese
¼ cup fresh garlic, minced
1 ½ cups sunflower butter
3 cups + 2 Tbs vegetable oil
2 cases baby spinach
2 ½ heads of garlic, peeled and chopped
½ cup Vegetable oil
12 zucchini, medium diced
¼ cup fresh garlic, minced
½ cup vegetable oil
6 red onions, thinly sliced
8.25 cups feta cheese, crumbled
>2 oz. meat/meat alternative*
2 oz. whole grains
*This assumes that you have enough cheese from mozzarella, feta and parmesan – you’ll need 12.5 lb. total – the parmesan and feta would equal around 4.5 lb.
