Good morning, friends! I’m excited for dinners this week because as you know I made a list of recipes I wanted to try this week and bought groceries based off of that list. It’s making things a lot less stressful.
I really dislike coming home from work and ransacking the kitchen until I find something that looks appetizing to make. Having the meals planned out is pretty awesome, and I’m pissed that it has taken me this long to decide to do it.
Last night’s dinner: somewhat homemade pizza.
It’s “somewhat” homemade pizza because the dough itself isn’t homemade at all. We used our favorite dough from Pillsbury as the base. I’m telling you, if you don’t have the time to make your own pizza dough this is a great alternative.
Bryan rolling out the dough – I’m terrible at that part.
Bryan wasn’t in the mood for tomato sauce on his side of the pizza so I bought a container of this garlicky butter spread and then topped with cheese and sausage. It was supposed to be similar to a white pizza with sausage. Not sure if it was exact, but Bryan enjoyed it!
My side was pretty classic: vodka sauce and cheese. I’m not a big fan of melted cheese so I only put a little bit on. That’s the joy of making your own pizza. You get to do whatever the heck you want.
Next time I’m going to be a bit more adventurous and try something new. Maybe pear and goat cheese with a honey base. Mmm, that sounds amazing. Yes, next time we make pizza we are doing that.
Talk to Me
- What’s your favorite pizza toppings?
- Do you make homemade pizza at your house?
- If you order out, what place has the best pizza?
I haven’t had pizza in 8 million years but when I did I just loved simple plain cheese… But I have a feeling NOW I would like sausages galore! LOL
mmm I love pizza. Eric and I always have different topping options. He loves sausage. I love veggies. Splitting it up is so easy though! I love making it myself. so much easier/cost less!
I loved making pizzas! I could take the juice from the pickled jalapenos and would mix it in with my sauce, had to use Parmesan cheese since I’m lactose intolerant, and had to always make the dough myself too since I’m gluten intolerant. My favorite topping was sun dried tomatoes 🙂
i totally count this as homemade pizza! haha. have you ever gotten dough from trader joe’s? they have whole wheat and a couple other flavors, but itz similar to Pillsbury in that you just roll it out. itz also like a buck 25. i love it!
