Homemade Pizza

My philosophy on pizza has always been: it's what we order when I don't want to cook!

But I just had a weird desire to play with yeast. Or better, to overcome my fear of it!

So I whipped out my favorite cook book...



And found a scrumptious and easy recipe for pizza crust. (Find the ridiculously easy recipe here)

Of course I grabbed my little side kick.


Her favorite part was putting flour on her nose.


We left it in the fridge over night then went to put it together the next evening. It was then that I realized I didn't have what I needed to make the pizza sauce! So I grabbed a jar of roasted red pepper and garlic spaghetti sauce, added some extra flavor (more garlic, oregano, chili powder, black pepper). I shredded some mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese, and added pepperoni and green peppers. Yum!


The kids loved it!



In fact, Marie wouldn't eat the pizza I made a week later with the homemade pizza sauce. So I have more of the spaghetti sauce ready for the next time!

This is what I ate the entire weekend of Mother's Day while the hubby was out of town. Good thing it's delish!
