Pizza Night!


We used to have the BEST homemade pizza while Chad lived with his aunt and uncle in Utah. We loved it so much I had Chad call and get the recipe!

THE DOUGH
First mix:
3 cups warm water
1 1/2 tablespoons yeast
1 1/2 tablespoons salt

Then slowly add 6 cups of flour
*You can use a mixer, but by the time you get to like the 5th cup of flour, you may need to use your hands! If the dough is really sticky, just add some more flour.

Cover the bowl with a paper towel and let it raise for a couple hours till it doubles in size.

Now you can roll it out into pizzas! This recipe makes 2 large pizzas, so I would suggest cutting it in half. We ate it for dinner last night with the help of some friends, and still had dough leftover to make some for lunch today!

Check out Chad's skills

*preheat oven anywhere between 400 and 450.. and spray a cookie sheet really well

THE SAUCE
We just used some tomato sauce and added italian seasoning, basil, garlic salt, and whatever else Chad added.. he was in charge of sauce.
OR
Just use spaghetti sauce, or a pre-made pizza sauce

Bake for about 15 minutes or until the crust is firm. The crust stays pretty light, so it won't really get golden brown.


I forgot to take a picture until I started eating.. oh well.
I put mushrooms, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese on mine.
YUMMMYYYYYYYYY
