I don’t spend nearly enough time extolling the virtues of pizza dough as a way to turn leftovers into a brand new meal. So, when I had an unexpected guest stop by around lunchtime recently, I was relieved to find a ball of pizza dough (a mainstay of my refrigerator), some leftover Butter Beans with Roasted Tomatoes and a bit of mozzarella cheese. Within minutes, I had a pizza in the oven. I threw together a salad, opened a bottle of wine and treated my friend to a fresh impromptu lunch.
