Don't like Red Sauce? Or want something Different? Here is your answer...
Life is busy. You know the dots on your calendars' on Ipod's, phones etc. Well, I have a dot every day. For the exception of Sunday, although I am busy on that day too.
I am not complaining. I enjoy doing what I do. But something gets neglected. And lately, it is my blog. Sorry.
I have to say, every time I do blog, I love it. And I won't stop, even though I am delayed.
But on to food...
Now this is my kind of Pizza.
I prefer veggies on a pizza over meat. And Oh My. Oh My...When you saute the veggies, it gives it a whole new taste. Divine.
I made this one day with a friend for lunch. After the fact, she kept telling me how her mouth waters every time she thinks of this pizza. It is that good. I won't tell a lie. And I will boast if I have to. I mean, come on...This food tastes good. And food SHOULD taste good.
Pizza is actually a quick meal in our house. If there is a day that I don't know what to make for dinner. I bring out the flour etc and start making dough. Pizza Dough. You will need this pizza dough to make pizza. Don't know how to make pizza very well without the dough.
I always have mozzarella cheese in the frig. And veggies and pasta sauce. So, there you go. Things you have on hand to make pizza.
I love to get creative with my pizza. You can put just about anything on pizza. My kids love Pasta Pizza. Simply, pizza dough with cooked pasta and sauce, sprinkle cheese on top and you have pasta pizza.
I am sure I will have a few pizza recipes on here. Just a few (with sarcasm...meaning I am sure I will have a lot because I love pizza).
Here we go...
This recipe for Pizza Dough...I use a lot!
I mean, A LOT....for stromboli, calzones, pizza, pretzels, sticky buns etc. etc.
It is fast. It is easy. Everything I have on hand. It is homemade. It is kid friendly. It is delicious. It is versatile. It can be grilled...oh yah, it is good on the grill!
So, having established the fact that I use this recipe a lot, I am sure I will refer to it in the future.
Kids in the Kitchen.
All these recipes, I have personally taught kids how to make. I teach a Kid's Kitchen class once a month, to teach kids how to cook.
Yes, flour was all over my floor. Yes, an apron was a must. Yes, it was a learning experience.
BUT....
I was teaching 8 kids at a time.
AND....
Yes, they had a blast. Yes, they love every minute. Yes, they are learning a valuable talent. Yes, they want to keep cooking. Yes, they all went home and cooked for their families. Yes, it is well worth the time to teach kids how to cook.
