Pizza Night - Again!


At least once week (at least!), we have Johnny's favorite meal...pizza (can you see my eye roll?). This was a tradition in his family and now he's passionate about making it in our cucina. It's become a challenge to him to try to make the best!  Everyone seems to like it, so I say it's the perfect homemade pizza.

Made prior:
: Dough - we have to start by making the dough a few days earlier to let it proof in the fridge.
: Sauce - we usually use a left over sauce from pasta.  This time is was an osso buco sauce

* I'll have to do other posts on the dough and sauce later :)

Toppings: any veggies and meat in the fridge pretty much!
Pepperoni and fresh mozzarella balls (best kind is from Mona Lisa), mushrooms, olives, onions, peppers, jalepenos, pineapple, ricotta cheese, and fresh basil


: Let dough rise for a couple of hours. We ended up splitting each ball into two = 4 pizzas!


: Preheat oven to max. Ours is 500 degrees

: Prep ingredients



: Roll out dough and put in oven for a few minutes without ingredients. I like to put olive oil on the crust to make it a little buttery.  Add sauce.

 

: Add all ingredients you wish.  I'm a cheese on top of ingredients type person :)  Bake in oven for 10ish minutes or until lightly brown.  



: Let cool for 5 minutes before cutting.
