Pizza Pizzaz

Here's a weekend meal idea: homemade pizza! Get everyone involved as you prepare this family favorite. It's super easy (trust me I've learned from my mistakes- like making my own dough). All you need is:


  1. Refrigerated pizza dough (in the section with the biscuits)

  2. Pizza sauce (near the spaghetti sauce)

  3. Shredded mozzarella or "pizza" cheese

  4. Sliced pepperoni (or cooked crumbled hamburger or chicken or ham- it's up to you!)

  5. Optional items include mushrooms, bell pepper, onions, pineapples, etc.

  6. Pizza pan or pizza stone

Stretch the dough, spread the sauce, sprinkle the cheese, add the meat and other fixin's. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 18 minutes. Viola! You're done. Depending on how many in your household you might need to cook TWO (something else I learned)!

BUON APPETITO!

Just a thought...for a smaller pizza meal, try using pita bread! It comes in regular white bread and whole wheat (if you can find it). MY sons dig having their own pizza with their own desired toppings! And it only needs to be in the oven long enough for the cheese to melt!

Thanks for the tip! I would have never thought of pita bread! My son would eat pizza EVERYDAY if I let him and that would be a great option for an individual portion.
